Independent Study & Internships
Independent Study (English 493)
Students who wish to pursue studies or projects not fully treated in existing courses may work with a professor of their choice on a mutually agreed upon special project.
In order to obtain permission to register for English 493, a student must file a statement with the Director of Undergraduate Studies (McClung Tower 311) outlining the scope of the project and the means by which it is to be evaluated. This planning statement must be signed by the professor and submitted within ten days after the semester begins. The proposed reading and writing for English 493 must be equivalent to the work in a regular course.
No more than six hours credit can be obtained in this manner.
