Please review the studies section on the Graduate School website for important information on the course of study and a variety of other relevant subjects.
Please note the requirement to pass a language course.
You may not submit a research proposal without having passed the Research Ethics course.
The importance of finding the right advisor cannot be overstated and you should give this issue your attention as soon as you begin studying toward your degree. By enrolling in courses related to the fields you are interested in studying, and getting to know the instructors, you can more readily explore the possibility of reaching out to them as potential advisors. Participating in faculty seminars and colloquia can be another effective way to identify potential advisors.
If you have already chosen a research topic, you can find out which professors are involved in that particular area of research and approach them directly. You can find a list of faculty members and details on their research interests and publications here, and the research areas they refer to – here. Finally, you can and should ask your temporary advisor for help finding a permanent advisor.
If you wish to register for a course after registration has closed, please fill out a request to change the study program form, have the instructor of the course and your advisor sign it, and note your reason for enrolling late.
For a list of all the courses offered in the department, see the course list.
