All students are required to take BIOL 6202 during their first fall semester after acceptance in the graduate degree program. During their first year, teaching assistants are required to take a special topics course (BIOL 6301) that emphasizes development of teaching skills. Only under extenuating circumstances and with confirmation by the instructor of record may these course requirements be waived by the Chair and Graduate Advisor.
