6625, |
Specialized Study in Area of Chemistry (1-4) |
| |
6626,
6627 |
A study of a problem or
problems using research techniques. Selection of problem
must be approved by the professor under whom the study is to
be made and the Dean of Arts and Sciences. The study should
contribute to the student's program. Preparation of a
scholarly paper is required and may involve oral defense.
Total credit for any combination of enrollments in these
courses may not exceed four semester hours. A Specialized
Study may be substituted for a required course only once in
a student's program. See semester hour limits listed under
Course Restrictions in General Regulations section. |
