Research for Credit
Students who are interested in receiving academic credit for their research should talk with their faculty mentors and academic advisors to enroll in 4998 (Research Thesis) or 4999 (Research). A good rule to follow is that 1 credit hour should equal 3 hours in the lab or working on the project.
