Graduate Catalogue Addendum
September 9, 2024
The comprehensive examination requirements for the Computer Science M.S. and the Computer Science AMP are as follows:
Receiving a grade of A- or better in all courses constitutes successfully completing the comprehensive examination in that area.
Students who receive a grade of B+ or lower in any of their courses must pass an oral comprehensive exam in that area. In this event, the Graduate Coordinator will form an exam committee for the oral exam(s). Each student who needs to take 1 or more comprehensive oral exam(s) should arrange a single date for all required oral exam(s) with the examiner(s) and then inform the Graduate Coordinator of the exam date. It is strongly recommended that the examination is completed during the academic year, unless all examiners voluntarily agree to give the exam on a date during the break.
