The Final Project

The major classwork differentiation between graduate and undergraduate credit in this class will be the final project. Those taking the class for undergraduate credit will be assigned a uniform project (to be announced). Those taking the course for graduate credit are expected to devise their own projects, of non-neglible scope, based on the topics in the class. Each graduate student will be responsible for discussing her or his project with me ahead of time; producing a formal, written project proposal well in advance of the final deadline; producing a final, written report describing the development of the project; and giving a short, in-class final project presentation. Projects may be primarily empirical, theoretical, or, in some cases, literature surveys, but all are expected to be of significant content. Please discuss your thoughts on this project with me well ahead of time!
