Independent Study
As a Jewell student, you are encouraged to plan at least one independent study experience to be pursued in an area of special interest. Independent study projects are planned in cooperation with the advisor and the professor directing the study. The summer term is ideal for short-range independent projects, on or off campus.
Through the college Alumni Association, it is possible for you to pursue an independent study related to the professions, business and industry, government, religious or social service, or other areas of personal interest.
Self-Designed Majors
You may devise an interdisciplinary or non-traditional major from the several hundred courses offered by the college. Instructions and forms for preparing a self-designed major are available through the Office of the Provost. Proposals for self-designed majors will not be accepted or approved later than the third week of the fall semester of the senior year (i.e., two semesters before graduation). Your major will be noted on your transcript as "self-designed."
