This experimental program is designed to foster close work with a faculty instructor in a small group environment, and also to facilitate critical thinking, writing, and oral communication skills. Tutorials will meet at lest once a week for an hour or more, at a time to be arranged by the instructor. All tutorial courses will be offered for a letter grade and will generate 4 semester-hours of course credit. The workload is considered equivalent to that of other Brandeis courses and usually includes writing assignments, readings, small group discussions, reports, research, and presentations. Admission to each course is by the signature of the instructor.
Enrollment is limited to eight, with preference given to sophomores and juniors.
Like 90-level courses, tutorial courses do not meet school distribution or university studies requirements. Concentration and program requirements may be met only with the permission of the undergraduate advising head or program director.
