EAPS 92 Thesis Research I
Research related to completion of a senior thesis. The initiative to begin a senior thesis project should come from the student, who should consult an appropriate faculty member. Conclusions from the research must presented in both written and oral form. Attendance at weekly earth sciences research seminars is required during Winter and Spring terms. Both EAPS 92 and EAPS 93 may be taken for course credit, but only one may count toward the major.
Students should register for EAPS 92 during fall or winter of their senior year; if they desire a second course credit for thesis work, they should register for EAPS 93 in a subsequent term. They may continue with their thesis research into a third term but cannot register for a third course credit. Normally a grade of “ON” (ongoing) will be given at the end of the term in which they registered for EAPS 92; a final grade will replace the “ON” upon successful completion of the senior thesis. Serves in satisfaction of the culminating experience requirement.
