| Courses available to I.R. Students
2002-2009 Students within the International Relations MA program can take courses from throughout Yale’s Graduate and Professional Schools. Each semester, the IR program provides its students with a “matrix” of courses, compiled from the offerings of the most relevant departments on campus. Students are not limited to building their program of study from this matrix; it simply serves to bring certain courses to our students’ attention. In addition, the IR program compiles a list of “Qualifying Courses” each semester. This list provides IR students with the courses that the Director of Graduate Studies has pre-approved for meeting specified core requirements. Others may fulfill a core requirement only with express permission of the DGS. Both the Matrix and the Qualifying Courses are guides. Course schedules must be approved by the DGS each term, and a student’s overall program of study must adhere to policies and procedures outlined by the Graduate School and the program. Please note that some courses may have limited enrollment or required prerequisites. Archived Matrices and Qualifying Courses may be accessed via the links below.
