ECON 85 Independent Study in Economics
This course is required of all majors in the Honors Program who do not initiate their honors work in their 60-level course; they will be expected to do the preliminary work on their Honors theses in this course. This course offers an opportunity for a student to do independent work under the direction of a member of the Department. For students who take this course in order to engage in independent study of a topic of interest rather than as a part of honors work, the prerequisite background will consist of all the regularly offered courses in the chosen field of study. Such a student will normally be expected to prepare, prior to the taking of ECON 85, a prospectus and a list of reading pertaining to the study he or she wishes to pursue.
Prerequisite
Department vice chair permission and faculty advisor permission required.
