Independent Research

1-3 units

Research under the supervision of a faculty mentor for juniors and seniors (or students who have completed at least 60 credits overall) in a setting of established, ongoing research. Same as BIOL 4950. Since this course has a large number of sections, some sections are listed and enrolled as BIOL 4951. If work is to be submitted for Latin honors, see details on this page: https://sites.wustl.edu/bio200500independentresearch/research-emphasis-and-latin-honors-2/. For enrollment instructions, potential mentors, and other details, see: https://sites.wustl.edu/bio200500independentresearch/. Students are registered by the department after approval is granted.
