CSCI 7901

This course tracks the completion of doctoral students’ thesis proposal program requirement. The thesis proposal is an important step towards the final doctoral dissertation, where the student solidifies their direction of research and research plan with an examining committee. The course culminates in a proposal document and a proposal defence that includes an oral presentation and a question period. The proposal course follows the research aptitude exam (CSCI 7900) and precedes the thesis (CSCI 9530).
