A checklist is the list of requirements to complete this program and receive the award, as the college publishes it in its catalog. It is the same for everyone. It does not say what you have completed; that comes from applying your own record.

    Electives

    electives · 1 item
    1. In addition to the three required courses, students must complete at least three graduate level (600 or above) semester-long elective courses in topics plausibly relevant to the scientific or research goals of the student. Courses are counted by length, not credits, i.e., a 1-credit class and a 4-credit class count equally toward our requirement. To get credit for modular courses (i.e., courses less than a semester in length), sufficient modules (typically three) must be completed to equal one semester long course. Modular courses do not need to be taken in the same semester. BBSP 710 counts as two modules toward the MCRO PhD degree. BBSP 705 does not count toward the MCRO degree.
