Graduation Requirements
For students who complete a thesis or research paper, the final examination consists of an oral presentation based on the content of the thesis or research paper. The examination is administered by the student’s advisory committee, which includes the student’s research advisor and two other members of the graduate faculty. For those students who select additional course work in lieu of a thesis or research paper, the final exam covers the content from three 500-level MATH, STAT or OR courses chosen jointly by the student and advisor.
