Directed Research

This course is available for graduate students who wish to develop their knowledge and skills in a more discipline-specific area by undertaking a small research project or targeted exercises requiring the collection and analysis of original data. The format of the course and associated activities are designed by the student in consultation with the instructor. The research project can entail unpublished data, data from public repositories, a meta-analysis of published data, new data from small lab- or field-based project(s) collected within the timeframe of a half-credit course. Data analyzed from this course cannot be used as part of the student's thesis.
