  1. Catalog Entry

RELN 498. Independent Study
Credit Hours (1-6).

Prerequisite: Junior standing; department approval

Since by its design an Independent Study course has no common format or subject matter, it is not possible to create one syllabus. Any topic which enhances the components of the student's major and which is approved by each of the signers on the application form is acceptable.

Independent Study regulations for the entire University are published in the Undergraduate Catalog.
