Students are required to successfully complete a compulsory full year project course and six graduate half courses (or equivalent), of which at least four must be 700 level and up to two 600 level courses approved by the program director. Two of these 600 level courses can be taken in the final undergraduate year at McMaster for graduate credit provided they are listed as option courses.
