Independent Study

Students may register for individualized courses of study for independent study credit under course number 395 in each department. The prerequisite in a given department is 12 semester hours of credit in that department. The student who wishes to design a course of independent study should outline a proposal on the official application form available at the registrar's office web site and obtain written approval from the instructor who will direct the course, his or her advisor, and the head of the department in which the study is done. A student may take no more than four hours of independent study in one semester.
