Courses

This is a half-credit, partial-semester course that all PPE majors are required to take in spring of their sophomore year. In the course, students will complete a Course of Study Proposal (COSP). The main purpose of the COSP is to outline a topic of focus within the PPE disciplines that will unify the student’s five major elective courses and senior research project into a coherent whole. In working on the COSP, students will learn how to identify a PPE topic of focus, brainstorm and workshop possibilities with their classmates, and reflect upon the relationship between their studies and their plans for life after Denison. Continuation in the PPE major requires a “Satisfactory” grade in the course, which is conditional upon approval of the COSP, completion of all course assignments, and full participation in course activities.

Directed studies are undertaken at the initiative of the student and may involve any topic acceptable to the student and an instructor.
