Specialized Study in Area of
Chemistry (1-4) |
| 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. |
