Experiential Learning

Independent Study

Independent Study allows students to learn under the supervision of faculty members outside the normal classroom setting. Undergraduate students are limited to a total of nine course credits during their academic career with no more than six course credits completed in any one department.

An independent study course:

• Must be initiated by the student, who should contact their instructor to receive a copy of the independent study form, complete part one of the document, and return to the instructor.
• Is permitted only under special circumstances and with instructor, Dean of Curriculum, and Vice President for Academic Affairs approval.

Internships

The Internship Program provides a structured educational experience integrating classroom theory with supervised, planned, and progressive work experience in the student’s field of study. The program is designed to supplement and complement the traditional curriculum at CSC. The goal of this experience will be to enhance the student’s educational, professional, and personal development. Contact Career and Academic Planning Services in the Reta E. King Library Learning Commons for approval and additional information.

Study Abroad

Students can earn credit through Chadron State College-sponsored international studies programs. Students may:

• Study at foreign universities for one or more semesters, and transfer the credit to CSC
• Earn CSC course credit for short-term international study courses, led by CSC faculty
• Qualify for financial aid
