Some courses may require prerequisites, or there may be a preferred sequence. Students take TCO685, Team Project Research, in lieu of preparing a thesis. For students who intend to enter a doctoral program and would prefer a thesis, consult with Dr. Leonard or Dr. Davis about the possibility of preparing an in-depth research paper equivalent to a master's thesis. Classes are scheduled one day per week. Summer terms are 10 weeks.
Mercer is on a semester system and offers a fall, spring, and summer term each year.
Though the summer term for TCO is very limited, TCO685 is ordinarily offered alternate summers. Discuss your plans for scheduling this course with your advisor. Classes currently earn 3 or 4 semester hours credit. Synchronous class meetings are set in the evenings at a time when students can be available. One or two per session.
