Course Requirements on the EDP Website

The EDP Website provides information primarily for prospective students (as opposed to the Student Handbook, which is the resource for current students). Any program requirements listed on the website vs. handbook are typically specific to the most recent cohort year. As requirements may differ between cohorts, you should defer to your specific Program of Work for course requirements. Your faculty adviser, Area Chair, and Graduate Adviser can also provide clarification when needed.
