Overview

Individual students or small groups of students may conduct readings under a faculty member's supervision in one or two selected areas.

Students are encouraged to select a faculty supervisor from the MA-IS faculty list, approach that faculty member, and ask for assistance in pursuing the topic in which the student is interested. Each name in the MA-IS faculty list is hyperlinked to a page indicating that faculty member’s specific academic expertise and supervisory interests. Students wishing to then enroll in a directed reading course must submit a learning contract (approved by the faculty supervisor) to the Director of the Graduate Program in Interdisciplinary Studies.

Athabasca University reserves the right to amend course outlines occasionally and without notice. Courses offered by other delivery methods may vary from their individualized study counterparts.
