Independent Study

ISC 395 Independent Study in ISC, may be done for one, two or three credits.

In order to do an independent study, you’ll need to find a full-time ISC faculty member who is willing to work with you. You’ll be working closely with that faculty member throughout the semester.

The topic of your independent study needs to be something that is (a) ISC-related and (b) not covered in the current ISC curriculum, at least not in depth. Independent study proposals that duplicate existing ISC courses will not be approved.

Once you’ve found a faculty member willing to work with you and discussed the independent study with them in detail, fill out this form.
