Individually designed selectives (IDS) experiences may include, but are not limited to, research in basic or clinical science areas, off-campus experiences not listed in a catalog. The following guidelines govern development of the individually designed selectives (IDS):
Complete the IDS application (available in the Office of Student Affairs, Brody 2S-20)
Completed application will include: Student’s Name, Title of Selective, Start Date, Faculty/Preceptor’s Name, Address/Location of Selective, Phone Number and Fax Number, Objectives to be accomplished during the selective (minimum of 3), Description of activities.
IDS Applications that are not complete will not be accepted for consideration.
Return the completed IDS application, with all signatures, to the Office of Student Affairs.
The Office of Student Affairs will review the completed IDS application. The purpose of the review is to determine if the IDS is equivalent to course already offered and if it is an acceptable senior experience that may meet a requirement.
This completed IDS application must be received at least 2 months prior to the start of the selective in order for the student to receive credit for the selective on his/her transcript.
