PhD Research Proposal

0 credits

PhD students are required to submit and defend a written research proposal for their thesis research before completing 36 credit hours in the program (typically between 18 and 24 months after starting). The proposal will be reviewed by the supervisory committee, and the student will be examined during the defense. The defense will consist of an oral presentation by the student, followed by two rounds of questioning from the supervisory committee members. This course is a requirement for all PhD students in Computer Science.
