CMH 5230 - Graduate Directed Study

Credits: 1-4

The directed study option allows students to work independently on a topic of interest under the close supervision of a faculty member. Given the nature of the directed study that focuses on personalizing learning, students are involved co-creating a course syllabus with a faculty member. In the co-creation procedure, students are able to contribute to establishing what content and topic is covered. The directed study may consist of independent readings on a specific clinical intervention combined with practice implications, comprehensive case study, a research study, or the development and application of a program evaluation. This course is aimed at students who want to explore and/or expand upon basic knowledge on a topic of interest in the field of counseling. The student must submit a directed study proposal and approved by the faculty member who will provide supervision. The directed study will result in a formal paper.
