Senior Thesis I (Year-Long)

The senior thesis (498-499) is a year-long project in which students complete a substantial piece of research and scholarship under the supervision and advisement of a Princeton faculty member. While the thesis is due in the student's final semester of study, the work requires sustained investment and attention throughout the academic year. REL 498 provides mentoring and structured assignments to ensure that students are on pace to complete their theses. All of the following components must be completed satisfactorily to pass; failing to complete one component could result in a "D" and failing to complete more than one will result in an "F."
