The following list represents graduate courses offered as part of the MELS program. The courses available each year will vary, and in some cases courses are only offered if there is sufficient student demand. Students are directed to the current year Registration Guide to see which 6xx courses are offered in any given year. Core courses (e.g., 48:662 and 48:663) are offered every year.

Course selection as part of a MELS student’s M.Sc. program is discussed and planned with their Graduate student committee. This list is provided as a guide for what is potentially available.
