Program Information : Thesis

To complete the ISCOR major, students are required to either complete a research thesis (ISCOR 497) or work as an intern (ISCOR 495: Internship in ISCOR).

Students who elect to do a thesis program are expected to write a substantive research paper pertaining to their specialization. The goal of the thesis is to enable the student to engage in extensive, independent research on a theme that particularly interested them in a prior upper-level course. Accordingly, students doing a thesis are strongly encouraged to select a supervising professor from a previous upper level ISCOR-related class.
