Courses numbered 500-599 are open to graduate students; however, a senior student who has a B average may take two graduate courses, not exceeding six credits, either for graduate credit or for completion of requirements for the bachelor's degree. In this case the chair of the department concerned must notify the registrar's office. Students in the five-year bachelor of science program in Mechanical Engineering are permitted other exceptions.   Graduate Programs Accounting Anthropology Arabic Language Arabic Language & Literature Arabic Studies Business Administration Comparative Literature Comparative Politics Computer Science Construction Engineering Design Economics Economics in International Development Engineering English Language Intensive Courses English & Comparative Literature Environmental Engineering European Studies Finance Forced Migration & Refugee Studies Industrial Engineering International & Comparative Law International Human Rights Law International Relations Islamic Art & Architecture   Islamic Studies Journalism and Mass Communication Law Management Management of Information Systems Marketing Materials & Manufacturing Middle Eastern History Middle East Studies Operations Management Physics Political Science Professional Development Public Administration Sociology-Anthropology Teaching Arabic as a Foreign Language (TAFL) Teaching English as a Foreign Languag (TEFL) Television Journalism Language Institutes Arabic Language Institute English Language Institute   Note Concerning Course Schedules Most course descriptions indicate the semester in which each course is usually offered, but this information is subject to change and many courses are not taught every year. The registrar's office distributes a detailed schedule of courses offered at the beginning of each semester which contains accurate information on which courses are offered, at what time, and by whom they are taught. For long-term planning, students should consult their advisers and/or individual departments for help in designing their programs of study. Students coming from the United States, especially year-abroad students, should contact the university's office in New York for current information about specific course offerings.  © 2004-2005, The American University in Cairo
