CAS Residency

The Department recommends, but no longer requires, a period of full-time study. Full-time study is the best way to be mentored into the practices of the academy, especially into the process of doing research. This is particularly important if your goal is to eventually work in a research university. If you can be in full-time residence for one year, or even a single semester, you should talk over the timing of this residence very carefully with your program advisor.
