Definition
复学 is a separable verb (离合词) meaning 'to resume one's studies after a break' — typically after illness, suspension, or a leave of absence. The verb 复 and the noun 学 can split to insert a time duration or other elements, e.g. 复了半年学 ('resumed studies for half a year'). You don't need a direct object; the context (school, university) is implied.
v.o.
to resume one's studies (after an interruption)
