Seminars

Seminar work is characterized by integrating the analysis of ideas and major issues of one or more disciplines. This provides students the opportunity to use the skills and knowledge they have acquired during their studies.

Seminars are governed by the following guidelines:

Admission to seminars requires the approval of the Director of the Department and the professor. Bachelor Degree students must have completed at least 30 credits. Associate Degree students must have completed at least 12 credits in programs composed of 60 credits or more and nine credits in programs composed of less than 60 credits.
The number of students in seminar courses is limited to 15.
Seminars are offered on the basis of from 1 to 6 credits per course. The course must have the authorization of the Director of the Department and the Division Dean or Dean of Academic Affairs.
Only six credits in seminar courses will be credited towards graduation in Bachelor Degree programs and three in Associate Degree programs.
Seminar courses are identified by combination 297 or 497 in the first three digits, (297 Associate Degrees; 497 Bachelor’s Degrees).
