Directed Studies Courses

In order to provide for a unique, highly individualized course of study for a single student, or a relatively small number of students, each academic department/program in the college offers Directed Studies courses. Such courses are designed to provide further study through directed readings, directed research projects or seminars, or special class work related to research in a specific subject. Each Directed Studies course is usually initiated in response to student interest, is limited to 7 or fewer students. The registration process for a Directed Study course must be completed by the end of the college’s drop/add period. For all part of term courses, the respective drop/add period will be the deadline. Any exception to this policy, must be approved by the Dean or Assistant Dean of the academic area and the Vice President of Academic and Student Affairs. Deadlines can be found on the Academic Calendar.
