Overview

Independent Study in English is designed for study that is not otherwise available in the curriculum. Independent study may be approved to count toward degree requirements if the Director of Graduate Studies judges that the proposed independent study clearly suits the special needs of the student.

Learning outcomes

Ordinarily students should not enroll in more than one semester of independent study in the course of their programs. Independent study may not be used to meet the historical period requirements or to replace English . Forms and registration information are available from the Graduate Advisor.

Programme Structure

All MFA candidates must register for a minimum of six hours of thesis research.
All doctoral candidates must register for a minimum of fourteen hours of thesis research. Students may register for any number of hours in any semester.
