Many courses require that students submit an independent study form to
the instructor to gain consent for adding the course.
At the undergraduate level, the form is mainly required for courses
numbered 399. These courses are titled "Independent Study" and require
that the student and instructor work together independently on a specific
topic or project. Undergraduate juniors or seniors should contact their
faculty advisors if they are interested in pursuing an independent study.
At the graduate level, the form is required for many different courses.
Similar to the undergraduate independent study (399), most graduate
programs have a course number 596 or 599 which serves the same purpose.
Additionally, some graduate programs offer research seminars or projects
courses which require the use of the independent study form.
Independent study forms should be submitted to the instructor of the
course for processing.
The following forms are available for download:
Please contact the instructor for a course or your faculty advisor if you
need assistance in determining when to use the independent study form. |
