Courses that Involve a One-to-One Faculty/Student Relationship
(281-296, 381-396, 481-496)
Tutorials: (281-284, 381-384, 481-484)
Independent Study: (285-288, 385-388, 485-488)
Research: (289-292, 389-392, 489-492)
Special Projects: (293-296, 393-396, 493-496)
These courses provide an opportunity for independent study in every department. Students who wish to undertake independent study should consult an adviser from the department or interdisciplinary program encompassing the student's area of interest. Such consultation is essential before registering for one of these courses because plans have to be developed by the faculty member and the student. The first digit indicates the level of experience that a student should have before taking the course.
Courses numbered 381-396 are open to students who have satisfactorily completed at least 60 credits or have permission of the department chair.
Courses numbered 481-496 are for students majoring in that subject area who have satisfactorily completed a total of 75 credits toward their degree, including at least 12 credits in that discipline or related areas.
Prerequisites
A prerequisite course is one that must be satisfactorily completed before a more advanced course is taken. The following are not satisfactory grades for prerequisite courses: F, NC, INC, PEN, R, W, WU, WF, AUD. Students who receive an INC in a prerequisite must complete it within TWO WEEKS of the following semester if they wish to remain in the more advanced course. For example, PSY 166 is the prerequisite for all 200-level psychology courses.
Corequisites
A corequisite course is one that must be taken in the same semester as its related course. For example, CHE 114 (lecture) and CHE 115 (lab) are corequisite courses.
