(*) Do not duplicate the content of the "Seminar" courses they take.

After completing the documents and materials, students should submit them to their graduate major via their academic supervisor. Students must not just show that they have experience and accomplishments, but must explain in detail how they have acquired each item of GA0D and GA1D in their work experience and accomplishments.
Finally, the graduate major decides whether to approve the credit earned and the number of credit(s) earned from this course based on the documents and materials submitted by the students.
When the graduate major approved for credit and the number of credit(s), the students should register for an appropriate course in the most recent Q available for registration. Then, the graduate major reports grades based on that approval.
If students want to take this course at the very end of their doctoral program, there may be no Q available. So students should take this course early.
