Informational Meeting on the Iran internships, Thursday 6:30PM at the Grad Center

An informational meeting on the Human Rights in Iran project internships will be held at 6:30 on May 17, 2012 in the Political Science Department Lounge, Room 5200, Graduate Center, City University of New York, 365 5th Avenue.  Attendance is not required to apply, but this is the best to be able to ask the coordinating staff and faculty about the program. 

Must clear incompletes by May 18

May 18, 2012 will be the last day for graduate students to clear INC grades from spring, summer, and fall 2011 and intersession 2012 by submitting missing work.  This deadline is in accordance with Faculty Council action bringing Brooklyn College into compliance with CUNY policy that INC grades be resolved in the long semester following the semester in which the grade was assigned.

Commencement

For our soon-to-be graduates, please note: filing for graduation is NOT the same as requesting tickets to walk in the commencement ceremony. If you would like to participate in the ceremony and would like tickets for friends and family members, call the Division of Student Affairs at 718.951.5352 as soon as possible to request tickets.


Internships at BC on human rights in Iran now accepting applications!

The International Affairs program is hosting a research project on Iran’s human rights to help support the UN Special Rapporteur.  We are looking for four interns.  Check out all the information on the blog at http://bcpolscima.wordpress.com/human-rights-in-iran-unit/.  This is a tremendous opportunity to get involved with international affairs in one of the most important countries in the world right now.

Fall registration opens May 1, 2012

If you’ve never registered online before, go to the Registration and Course Scheduling page for instructions.

If you would like to take a course that requires permission:

Request permission by filling out this online form.  For courses that do require permission, students who need a required course to graduate next year will have first priority. Second priority will be given to students in MA programs that require the course.   We will let people know around May 20th if permission has been granted. Note: Remember, receiving permission to take a course is NOT the same as registering for it. You must still register for it online once permission has been granted.

Note that most of our graduate classes do not require permission.
