Individual meetings are periodic and it is very important that the students come.
You must have individual initiative and be able to work alone. On the other hand, this is an opportunity to pursue a subject that really interests you. Students, in cooperation with the instructor, will have to develop a research project of their choice and gather a reading list. For example, a student might pick a political institution in their own country and compare it with a similar one in the United States. After picking a topic, students will then produce a rough draft which will be examined thoroughly.
