In addition to the above required courses, students are required to complete two independent studies:

  • NMETH 600/MEBI 600 - Informatics Practicum/Internship - 6 credits
    A hands-on experience working within the field of informatics.  This is a guided independent study for which you may work with faculty or a community member to gain experience or knowledge in an area of informatics.
  • Scholarly Project - 6 credits
    A scholarly project is an independent scholarly inquiry or research project completed with the guidance of a supervisory committee.  The specific coursework required for a scholarly project is determined with the committee.  NOTE: Students may also elect to complete a Thesis instead of a Scholarly Project, which requires 9 credits of NMETH 700.
