Directed Study III

Directed Study provides the opportunity for students to undertake a specific project in their linguistic program. Often this will be an individual project which is supervised in a one-to-one way by a staff member. The specific study is discussed with a staff member and the staff member offers guidance and support as the project develops. Meetings between the student and the staff member are periodic and at the request of the student or the staff member. The staff member may set semester milestones and timelines for the student to meet as part of the course. In another scenario a student or group of students may engage with the course content of a masters level course, whilst enrolled in the Directed Study course. The course coordinator will accept the student as auditing the course and the supervisor of the student will adjust the assignment tasks and demands to the level of the appropriate undergraduate level. A Linguistics staff member will take responsibility for the assessment component of the course.
