This is a combined course (final three credits) taken at the end of the student's degree program.  The Thesis Writing portion is for the actual production/completion of the thesis, carries three credits (and tuition charges), and is assigned a letter grade by the mentor directing the thesis.  The Thesis Research portion of the course is for zero credits and zero tuition, carries no grade, and reflects the time spent on researching a thesis.  There are no class sessions.    You must enter both courses (BLHV 348 and BLHV 349) on your registration.  Note: This combined course is considered as half-time, which should be noted by students in regard to their visa or loan enrollment guidelines, stipulations, and student status.
