*Each student intern will develop a specialty option in his/her area of primary interest. Each specialty consists of RC 494 - Individual Study (4 credits) and a minimum of 12 special elective academic credits. The specialty option is initiated in the latter part of the internship year and presented prior to completion of the internship to a respiratory care consortial committee or its designates, for approval. Once approved, any changes must occur by petition to the consortial committee. A list of approved special electives can be found at www.ndsu.edu/alliedsciences/respiratory_care/rc_494_special_electives.
