1. Students may be required by the University and/or Graduate School to pass an English language proficiency test or otherwise register for improvement course(s). The credits earned (if any) cannot be counted as accumulated credits to fulfill program requirements.

2. The Department may require students to register for selected course(s), at either graduate or undergraduate level, outside the program as a condition for acceptance. The credits earned (if any) can not be counted as accumulated credits to fulfill program requirements.

3. Upon the thesis advisor’s recommendation, students may be required to register for selected course(s), at either graduate or undergraduate level, outside the program. The credits earned (if any) can not be counted as accumulated credits to fulfill program requirements and are not transferable.

C. Academic Activities

1.

Students are required to report progress once every semester, the schedule and format for which will be arranged by the Department.

2.

Students must participate in academic activities arranged for them by the Department.

Students who fail to meet the above requirements, will have to carry out some other academic activities set by the program committee or will not be granted a degree.
