The individualized major must include a rationale explaining why an individualized program of study is necessary. After the Chair signs the proposal it must be forwarded to the campus dean for approval. The dean's office will send an approved individualized major to the registrar for recording. The registrar will provide the Chair and the student with a copy of the approved major proposal. The individualized major form will be used by the degree auditor to insure that the student has completed the major requirements for graduation.
Students can register during the fall, spring, or summer terms for internship experiences.
For fall and spring semesters, the credit range is normally 1-16 credits. Some departments have a lower maximum limit. For summer, students are allowed to register for 1-12 credits. All internships, which take place during the summer, must be registered under the summer term, rather than under either the previous spring semester or the following fall semester. Students who plan to enroll in 8 or more credits of internship are required to attend a pre-internship seminar the semester prior to their internship.
