Other Research Opportunities

The student plans, executes, and reports the results of their independent research or study project under the direction of a faculty supervisor.

• Each course is one semester long, but will still give you the ability to collaborate with a supervisor on a specific topic in-depth. 

• Both courses can be taken up to two times.

*It is recommended that you complete an independent study with the same professor for a whole year (fall+winter term) in order to be equivalent with an honours degree.
