Description
Independent Study-2-6 credits. Independent study offers an opportunity to explore an area of study not included in the
catalog listing of approved courses. The topic of an Independent Study should be selected
and carefully designed by the student and faculty sponsor, and must meet with the approval
of the Dean or Dean's designee. Normally, the student will be expected to have a cumulative grade
point average of 3.00 and possess the appropriate background and interest to pursue the
proposed area of study. A “Proposal for Independent Study” form may be obtained from the
Registrar or the Dean or Dean's designee. Independent Study courses are assigned
numbers of 299, 399 or 499, depending on the level of the course.
