Some students supported by the department might be able to complete their degree requirements one or two terms earlier than usual (i.e., before two academic years have passed). If the student and advisor desire, support may be continued to the end of the second academic year to enable the student to continue work on their thesis or project.

This work will be done as CS 5990. However, under no circumstances should a student be coerced to continue work after their degree requirements are complete, nor may the student’s committee delay its review of the student’s work in order to extend the student’s stay.

Your entire committee (3 departmental faculty and one outside member) must be selected and confirmed approximately two weeks prior to the proposal. They must be kept up to date on the progress of your research.

Science, engineering, mathematics, etc.: must be approved by your advisor. Unrelated to subject areas are allowed (Physical Education, etc.) only if you are beyond your minimum registration requirements.

If a grade of BC or below is received in the course, it is as if the course was not taken. In particular, if the BC was in CS 5311 or CS 5321, that course must be retaken.
