Independent Study

(1-4 Credits)

An Independent Study is an opportunity for students to work closely with a faculty advisor on a subject or interest related to their area of study. After securing approval from a faculty member in writing, the student should see the Director of Undergraduate Studies (DUS) in order to register for an Independent Study course. Independent Study courses may be taken for 2 or 4 credits. The faculty adviser and the student will together determine the course content and graded assignments of the Independent Study. An Independent Study can be applied towards the major and/or minor.
