Course offerings
The University Course Calendar provides an exhaustive list of the courses that exist or that may be offered, while information about course offerings for the current or upcoming session can be found on Minerva in the Class Schedule section. In addition, many units publish detailed syllabi related to the courses being offered in the current or upcoming terms on their own websites. Having trouble finding what you're looking for? Contact your Graduate Program Director or Coordinator.
The 捆绑SM社区 Writing Centre offers several 1-credit courses in academic and scholarly communication. Most of these courses form part of the Graphos program for graduate students and postdoctoral fellows. Graphos courses cannot be counted toward the requirements of a graduate program (the sole exception being the non-thesis Master's program in Second Language Education, toward which only WCOM 642, WCOM 645, WCOM 661, WCOM 662 may be counted). Note: Since Graphos courses finish before the end of the full term, the standard add/drop and withdrawal dates do not apply. Before registering, please consult the Graphos website for more details about deadlines.
