| IBIO*4521/2 Thesis in Integrative Biology F-W (0-12) [2.00] | |
|---|---|
| This course is a two semester (F,W) undergraduate Thesis project in which students conduct a comprehensive, independent research project in organismal biology under the supervision of a faculty member. Projects must be planned in advance and involve a thorough literature review, a research proposal, original research of publication quality and a written Thesis, which is assessed through an oral presentation and defence. Students must make arrangements with both a faculty supervisor and the course coordinator at least one semester in advance. A departmental registration form must be obtained from the course coordinator and submitted no later than the second class day of the semester in which the project is to be initiated. This is a two semester course offered over consecutive semesters F-W. When you select this course, you must select IBIO*4521 in the Fall semester and IBIO*4522 in the Winter semester.
