University of Wyoming

Research and writing in specialized or advanced areas of the law. Independent Study papers may not duplicate material taught in a regular law school offering. They are intended to allow students to explore a new area, not covered in the course descriptions, or to conduct more in-depth research into a topic presented in a regular law school offering. Students are to contact a professor that has a background or interest in the students' topic area to determine if the professor will supervise the Independent Study.Students receive one credit hour for 50 hours of work or 2 credit hours for 100 hours of work. Grades are generally based on a research paper. The paper may be structured so as to fulfill the advanced writing requirement. Within one week after the start of the semester, students must submit to the Associate Dean a written proposal, signed by the student and supervising professor, that describes the topic and paper requirements. Forms for this purpose are available from the Associate Dean.
