A Discovery Learning Experience (DLE) is discovery-based and experiential learning that involves instructional experiences out-of-class and beyond typical curriculum courses. These enrichment experiences exist for students under the supervision of a faculty member. UD students must register and successfully complete at least three credits of DLE. This may be one 3 credit experience or experiences of 1 or 2 credits adding up to three credits.
Students
DLE requirement is waived for students who entered the University of Delaware in Fall 2005, Winter 2006, Spring 2006, and Summer 2006.
Three DLE credits are required of all bachelor degree undergraduate students entering UD as of Fall 2006 or later. This includes readmitted students, transfer students, and students who entered in the Associate in Arts (AA) Program or Professional and Continuing Studies (PCS).
All bachelor degree undergraduate students entering UD in Fall 2006 or later satisfy the DLE requirement if a total of three credits are registered and successfully completed prior to Fall 2008 in one of the following: internship, service learning, independent study, undergraduate research program, or study abroad program. As of Fall 2008, only DLE approved courses satisfy the DLE requirement.
Bachelor degree undergraduate students NOT required to fulfill this DLE requirement include the following: students who entered UD prior to Fall 2006 in a bachelor degree undergraduate major/program, (AA) program, Parallel Program, or (PCS) and who registered and successfully completed at least 12 credits that are posted prior to Fall 2006 on the UD transcript; and transfer students who earned at least 12 credits at another college or university prior to Fall 2006 and subsequently successfully transferred those credits to UD.
Any student with 12 college or university credits (not including AP or IB credits) completed prior to Fall 2006, which are subsequently posted to the UD transcript, do NOT have to fulfill the DLE requirement, regardless of the date of UD matriculation.
