Senior Thesis Catalog \| Department Code Abbreviations
Note: Senior Theses on Biology topics between 1924-1990 were part of the Biology Department; in 1990 the Biology Department split into Ecology and Evolutionary Biology and Molecular Biology. "...most Princetonians had come to regard the senior thesis, the capstone of independent study, as the most valuable element in their undergraduate education.* *The Eisenhart ideal of independent study received additional emphasis beginning in 1967; thereafter, each undergraduate working for the A.B. was required to take only four courses a term during freshman and sophomore as well as junior year and three during senior year."
