Coursework

How do I register for Graduate Research units (295's)?

  1. Email a request to your faculty advisor (or the faculty member with whom you are doing a rotation for the semester) with the course name and number (CHEM 295/MATH 295/PHYS 295/QSB 295) and the specific amountof research units you will need for for the semester.
    • Example: Could you approve me to take 8 units of CHEM 295? 
  2. Forward the email approval from your advisor (or rotating faculty) to the appropriate SNS graduate support staff.
  3. The SNS graduate staff will then email you the CRN to enroll in your CHEM 295/MATH 295/PHYS 295/QSB 295 course online.
