SOC 498 Independent Study

Fall/Spring

The Independent Study Program affords an opportunity for the student who wishes to undertake a well-defined research project. While the student conducts his work under the guidance of a faculty member of his own choosing, the project is carried out in an independent manner without regular class meetings. Effective independent study is characterized by a reduction in formal instruction and an increase in the individual student’s responsibility and initiative in the learning process. Prerequisite: SOC 100  Students must have earned 60 or more credits and a minimum of 2.5 cumulative grade point average at the time of application.

1-3 credit hours each semester
