Registering for EDU 595

At the time that you meet with your advisor to prepare your program of studies (Form B/C), discuss with your advisor the semester when you hope to be ready to enroll in EDU 595 taking into account the need to have completed all other core requirements except the practicum/internship requirement. It will be your responsibility not only to develop a project focus for the directed study but also to ask a faculty member to supervise the directed study. Once you have developed a tentative project focus, your next step should be to discuss your ideas for your project with appropriate faculty members (generally, those from whom you have taken courses, or those with expertise related to your project’s focus), and seek agreement from one of them to serve as your faculty supervisor. When you are ready to register for the course, contact Dr. Poe (retta.poe@wku.edu) to ask to be cleared to register. At that time you will be expected to tell her the faculty member who has agreed to supervise your project. Dr. Poe will arrange for you to be cleared to register, and then you will be able to do so on TopNet.
