Elective Courses

In addition to the required core didactic courses and depending upon the mentored research project and areas of particular interest, trainees have the opportunity to pursue advanced training. Eight credit hours of elective courses are required. Additional optional supplementary courses and skill acquisition workshops may also be taken with prior written approval from the CTEP Program Office.
