This means that they are expected to require an average of 15 hours per week of study or 150 hours over the term. This time includes time meeting with your supervisor, conducting library research, actually collecting data, and so forth. You need to be sure that you have the self-discipline and motivation to do this before you undertake an independent study. One sign of your readiness is your willingness to take steps which prepare you for independent work. Your background for this type of independent study will be stronger if you have completed at least one other laboratory course in psychology.
