CC 697 - Directed Study

Credits: 1-4 credits
(Semester varies)

Students interested in completing independent projects in their areas of study can do so under this option. Students must collaborate with a full-time faculty member in the Department of Communication Studies on their study proposals. These proposals must identify learning objectives, learning outcomes, a justification for taking the directed study, design of instruction, and a bibliography. Proposals must be submitted by the end of the semester preceding the semester in which the students want to complete directed studies. Directed studies cannot be used to fulfill a course requirement that is offered by the Department of Communication Studies. Students must secure the commitment of a full-time faculty member and their signature along with the approvals and signatures of the graduate program director and the department chair. Students may take up to 4 directed study credits.
