*
Courses must be taken from the Math and CS program: any deviation must be approved, in advance, by the Board of Studies: e-mail such requests to horaa.math@weizmann.ac.il .

Approval will be given for reasonable choices and a reasonable balance of courses: we expect at least half of the points to be for relevant CS/Math courses. We expect that the choice of courses will be guided by academic excellence: relevant to your work yet broad and diverse with respect to subjects and instructors. You are more than welcome to discuss your choices with your advisor, your advisory committee or with the members of the board of studies.

**
Students may obtain credit points for participation in the enrichment courses program. Upon recommendation of the course instructors AND approval by the Chair of the Board of Studies, each course will carry a maximum of 2 credit points.
