The Department of Information Systems and Decision Science has put together a list of courses to choose from. If you are
unsure of which courses would be useful for your professional, personal, or educational goals please schedule a meeting with
your Graduate Concentration Exploration Advisors for a personal consultation.
During your first semester in the program a copy of the Concentration Elective Approval form must be submitted, by the
deadlines found in your GSH, via email to newadmit@fullerton.edu or you may drop a copy off in SGMH4210.
o When you make any changes to your electives simply choose alternatives from the list below. You are not required
to resubmit a new form as long as the elective courses are included in this list.
Concentration courses are offered less frequently then required courses. Picking your concentration elective courses within
the first semester provides you with the opportunity to enroll in the courses as they are offered.
It is your responsibility to check the prerequisites when selecting your concentration elective courses. You are responsible for
completing any prerequisite coursework prior to enrolling in a course.
