Project Option

Option I: Once student is ready to begin project, a link will be sent to student with project choices from which to choose. Once selected and confirmed, Penny Jackson will assist in securing committee members. Once a committee has been formed, instructions will be given to student on how to file a degree plan online with the Office of Graduate and Professional Studies. Degree plan MUST be filed at least 90 days before graduation.
The project will be completed in one semester but MUST be started the semester prior to graduation. Student will be required to compose a written report and make an oral presentation on the work to his/her Committee using a designated web conferencing system. This will serve as student’s “Final Oral Exam” (See Section E Below) during the semester student plans to graduate. The purpose of this project is to familiarize the student with the type of problems that may be encountered in future work and to give the student a chance to develop the ability to present results both verbally and in writing.

Extra Course + Presentation Option

Option II: Once the student is ready to start their final semester, Penny Jackson will assist in securing committee members and will send degree plan and graduation instructions. Degree plan MUST be filed at least 90 days before graduation.

Option II of the MS Degree will require the taking of 11 courses in place of the 10 courses required in Option I.
