Engineering Independent Study

1 Course Unit

An opportunity for the student to work closely with a professor in a project to develop skills and technique in engineering research and development. To register for this course, the student writes a one-page proposal that is approved by the professor supervising the research and submitted to the undergraduate curriculum chairman during the first week of the term. This course is distinct from CBE 0099 in its emphasis on the engineering aspects of the research topic, and as such it can be used as a CBE elective. In the Project Proposal described on the Application for Independent Study form, the proposal should highlight the engineering aspects of the work. A final report is required to be submitted to the supervising professor and the undergraduate curriculum chair, who will work together to assign a grade. Fall or Spring 1 Course Unit
