Economics 4901 is designed to allow a student to study with a faculty member a topic of mutual interest that is not taught as a formal course. To register for either the Independent Research or Georgia Internship course the student must have at least a 2.7 overall grade point average. Prior to registering for the course, the student must obtain the appropriate form from the Economics Office for indicating the title of and content of the project as well as the name and signature of the faculty sponsor. The project must receive the approval of the Director or Associate Director of the School of Economics. A permit will then be issued to allow the student to register for the course.
