RECOMMENDED COURSES NORMALLY INCLUDED IN PHYSIOLOGY GRADUATE PROGRAMS OF STUDY FOR THE MS AND PhD DEGREES, AND FOR THE NON-THESIS MASTER OF PHYSIOLOGY PROGRAM
In addition to the required courses, graduate degree committees have developed programs of study by selecting courses from the following list. Although courses not included on the list may be more appropriate for certain students and will be considered on the plan of work, the courses listed are recommended as components of programs of study for Physiology doctoral and MS graduate students. Advisors for MOP students should ensure that the plan of work includes 21 credit hours from the recommended course list.
Many courses are cross-listed with other programs; cross-listed course prefixes are not indicated.
