This page contains links regarding information about the graduate thesis/project course (CSC 550). CSC 550 is an individual study to demonstrate the ability to formulate, investigate, and analyze a problem and to report the results. A written report and an oral presentation are required. Guidelines for completing this requirement are available from the CSC program and must be consulted before any work is begun. CSC 550 may be repeated, but only four hours will count toward the degree. The project must have approval from the student's supervisor. Note: If the project/thesis is not completed during the initial enrollment, students must register for one hour on an audit basis in all subsequent semesters until the project/thesis is completed.
