Independent Study

Catalog description

The Independent Study course is a directed study of a topic approved and guided by an individual faculty member or other instructor. Typically, Independent Study is used to support students in their desire to know more about a particular topic/issue that is not addressed in great depth in required courses, and its outcome is a scholarly product. On occasion, this option may be structured as a typical course that is designed by faculty and used to fill in gaps during times of curriculum transition or to meet the needs of a particular group of students. Instructor consent required.
