Elective Courses:
In addition to the core courses and the seminars, each PBEE student
will be expected to take additional courses, electives, available
at Emory (or other universities and institutes). The specific courses
taken and the number of these elective courses will be specifically
tailored to the student's interests and needs. Decisions about electives
will be made by the student in consultation with their temporary
advisor or their mentor and dissertation committee.

Students whose research involves mathematical modeling or statistics
will take elective courses in the Department of Mathematics, Department
of Computer Science, and Department of Biostatistics. The nature
and number of these electives will, of course, depend on the student's
mathematical, computer and statistical background. Potential courses
of these types include:
