QSS 88 Independent Study in Quantitative Social Science

Each QSS major must complete an honors thesis by taking QSS88 for credit at some point during the student’s thesis year, and this course will in general be taken in the winter quarter.  During the chosen quarter, each student will work on an independent research project under the direction of one or more faculty members, who will meet with the student regularly, usually weekly.   All QSS theses will be graded and presented in accordance with Dartmouth College rules and guidelines that have been established by the QSS Steering Committee. This course is repeatable as many times as the student would like to repeat it. The guidelines are available at the QSS website. 

The Timetable of Class Meetings contains the most up-to-date information about a course. It includes not only the meeting time and instructor, but also its official distributive and/or world culture designation. This information supersedes any information you may see elsewhere, to include what may appear in this ORC/Catalog or on a department/program website. Note that course attributes may change term to term therefore those in effect are those (only) during the term in which you enroll in the course.
