Electives can also be courses outside of the History department. What are Directed Readings (291s)?

0

• Directed Readings are individual reading courses that students arrange with faculty members. • Up to three students can participate in one of these courses. If more than three students enroll, the course becomes a scheduled Special Topics Course (290). • These courses can cover an area not currently taught in a regularly scheduled course or can focus on a student’s particular interests. • These courses often count as electives, but upon petition to the Graduate Program Director may be part of a first or second field. • Students may take 291s for either a letter grade (A-F) or a Satisfactory/Unsatisfactory grade. Students taking a graded (A-F) 291 must sign a contract with the professor detailing the content and requirements of the course. • The contract [Link to online contract coming!] should be turned in to the Graduate Administrator by the second week of the quarter. • Students normally may enroll in no more than three 291s for a letter grade (A-F) from any single professor.
