Students wanting to enroll in an independent study or special topics course must, in consultation with the instructor, complete the Independent Study/Special Topics Course Contract available on the Current Students | GKSOM Forms page and deliver it to the GKSOM Enrollment Specialist. Students must complete this form on or before the end of the add period in any given semester. The GKSOM Enrollment Specialist will provide the student with registration information. The Graduate Committee then reviews the proposal to determine if the amount of coursework required is congruent with the number of credit hours requested. Students will be informed of Graduate Committee approval. Student projects that are not acceptable are returned to the student for revision with the help of the instructor.
