I'm taking 3 cources: International Politics, Research Methods, and International Releations. It's a two-year program, but I have an assistantship as well so that will add some hours. Plus, I'll come out of it with graduate thesis #2. Which is good, because <a href="http://www.pupress.princeton.edu/titles/5982.html" rel="nofollow">someone else</a> already wrote <a href="http://www.cominganarchy.com/" rel="nofollow">my first one</a>. Younghusband,

I was told there is "a lot of work" and that this was no undergrad. (Any other former grad students out there concur?) I guess there is always auditing. The only other course I would like to take is Media and the Military. Assymetrical Warfare is being offered in Ottawa. If I get a B+ average for these three courses then next year I can concentrate on writing my thesis. It is a 2 year program. The only other thing I intend to be involved in is research, if I can.

How many courses can you take? And what are some of the other courses offered? Is it a one or two year program? What other activities will you be involved in?

You could be a totally awesome Canadian UN forces commander like the guy in Hotel Rwanda. Are you thinking of actually joining the military?

It matches up with my first Master's course in IR at troy State. Its a bit heavy, but figuring out how political science and IR relate is a big question. I hope traditional means Thucydides, too. I'm preparing a first paper on non-proliferation, so again keep the updates coming. I’d enjoy seeing more details on the second course.

WS500 sounds really, really good. But I'm with you, I'd want to take a course on Assymetric Warfare. And think, you could go home from the library, pop in Panzer General, and call it homework.
