An independent project is an advanced study of a topic of particular interest to the student. It takes place outside of the regular classroom environment, and requires a faculty advisor who will evaluate the result of the project and submit the grade.
Tuition is charged at the regular rate for the number of hours for which the student enrolls.
Note An independent project must not be equivalent, in content, to courses currently offered by the College. A form for independent project work is available from the Records Office. The department chairperson and your faculty advisor must approve your project by signing this form. The completed form must be presented at registration for inclusion with your other approved courses. Students are required to begin developing their project ideas and completing their independent project forms before registration actually begins.
