A limited number of 398H/399Y courses are available each year. Faculty supervisors choose the students who apply for the projects as they now do for the 299Ys. They also sign a contract with the successful candidates as with the 299Y projects.

Students must have completed a minimum of eight FCEs (or two years) of their studies by the time they begin a 398H/399Y project. The 398H/399Y would be eligible to count towards program completion if the program sponsor (Chair or Director) so chooses. The 398H/399Y would normally have a program-specific designator, such as ANT, CLA, VIC, ZOO, etc.

The projects normally run within the May-August period, when both Faculty and students would be able to make the time commitments necessary. Regular tuition fees apply. The practical, experiential component can take the form of research/learning under the supervision of a faculty member in archives, laboratories, libraries, or in a field camp, etc. — but not in a classroom at another university (that is covered by the Faculty’s exchange programs).

Details of individual 399Y projects will be available in the Program office after February 1st each year.
