Relevant Coursework

You may choose to list your coursework by relevance to circumvent listing foundational courses that do not capture your unique academic training to date.

Miles Macdonell Collegiate International Baccalaureate Program

Another way to list coursework is by institution. This can be useful to transfer students, or students who participated in unique pre-college programs. 

Swamp Studies Coursework

Alternatively, you may choose to list your coursework by topic area. This can be particularly useful to highlight double-majors, minors, or a few topically-related electives you've taken.

Coursework as Narrative

To complement course lists, you may include an additional section to explain why your degree program or institution is salient to your interests and goals. Does your coursework diverge from your research experience? Or does your research complement your coursework? Have you been impacted by a particular class that you would like to highlight? Do you have a series of classes you've taken that's prepared you for your next step?
