Course Description

Summary

Students undertaking culminating work in Society, Culture, and Thought (SCT) complete individual research projects. The process generally begins with students presenting ideas and proposals in their sixth-term Plan Meetings. To support these projects, SCT faculty offer a combined research seminar (2 credits) and various specialized group tutorials (2 credits). These are co-requisites, so students taking the seminar must also take one of the group tutorials. Most individual research projects are accomplished in one term. Students wanting to conduct extensive fieldwork, data collection, or archival research may continue, with permission of their instructors, into the spring term after completing the fall-semester combined seminar and tutorial. Please email the instructor to register for this Fall 2023 semester seminar and for details about completing the necessary group tutorial form by the end of Spring 2023. Note that there are two different sessions of the research seminar on Tuesdays. These are listed as separate courses, and students should choose one or the other.
