3.00 Credits
Prerequisites: Permission of instructor and department chairperson A comprehensive research experience for students intending to pursue graduate studies. Students work under the direct supervision of a faculty member and undertake research in an area designated by the faculty member. The student develops a comprehensive research proposal that identifies the significance of the research, as well as the objectives, goals, and methodologies for the research project. Research results are formally presented to the faculty member.
-
3.00 Credits
Conditions and hours to be arranged Prerequisites: Upper-division standing; permission of instructor, department chairperson, and college dean A student works under the direction of a faculty member to pursue a specific line of study in an area of interest to the student. The work may deal with subject matter not normally available in the curriculum, or may involve a design project. Study under the supervision of a faculty member in an area not otherwise part of the discipline’s course offerings.
