| * **Reading Courses**. These come in three flavors - MAT 298/299/299D. The first is for group reading courses, the second for individual study, and the third for dissertation research. To register for one of these, //talk to the faculty// about what the course woulld be on, and how many units it'd be for. Then fill out the relevant form in the department office. It's common to take at least one MAT 299 with your potential adviser before going into the qualifying exam. | * **Reading Courses**. These come in three flavors - MAT 298/299/299D.
