SOC 399 - Independent Readings/Project

2018-2019 Catalog Year:

See the section CURRICULUM INFORMATION, of this Catalog for college wide guidelines for Independent Study. The department also requires completion of all eighteen hours of “Basic Requirements” listed for a sociology major and preparation by a superior student (usually well over a 3.0 GPA) of a written plan of study within a professor’s area of specialization and not available as a regular course. The plan of study will specify the topic, objectives, and approach through a semester-long program, the number of credit hours sought, and the methods by which the professor will supervise and evaluate it for an appropriate letter grade, A through E. After the professor is satisfied that the student is qualified and that the plan of study has academic merit, the student will seek similar approval from the student’s academic advisor and then from the department chair.
