Admission requirements are alsoincluded.<p> The guidelines stated here are those of the Computer Science Department. Certain otherregulations are imposedby the Oklahoma State University Graduate School and are described in the Oklahoma StateUniversity Catalog. It is the student's responsibility to satisfy all requirements of the Computer Science Department and the Graduate College.<p>Graduate students are expected to participate in the professional activities of the department. This includesattending seminars and colloquia, and suggesting improvements in curriculum and teaching.<p><hr><h3>REQUIREMENTS FOR ADMISSION</h3>In addition to the requirements listed in the Catalog, students must satisfy the followingrequirements:<br><ol><li>a Bachelor's degree from an accredited college or university; <li>successful completion of an 8-hour calculus sequence;<li> either a "B" average or better during the last two years of studies or a substantialdemonstration of mature performance in an industrial environment;<li>a TOEFL score of 550 or better for international students;<li>an undergraduate major in computer science or significant course work or work experiencein computer science.</ol> A student well prepared for M.S. study should have a good background in mainstream computerscience. This includes experience with procedural programming languages (e.g., Ada, C,Modula, Pascal, or Smalltalk), and non-procedural languages (e.g., Lisp, Prolog, or ML); background in computer architecture or assembly language, data structures, operating systems,software engineering, and related mathematics (e.g. mathematicallogic, discrete mathematics, and calculus). A student who lacks experience in some of theseareas may be admitted with deficiencies listed.<p>The application cannot be considered until all of these materials are received by thedepartment.<p><h3>M.S. DEGREE REQUIREMENTS</h3><ol><li>The M.S. degree requires a minimum of 30 credit hours of graduate-level course work. Thecourse workmust include:<ul><li>core courses - 12 credit hours - 5113 or 5253, 5313, 5323, and 5413;<li>elective courses - 12 credit hours; and<li>M.S. thesis research courses - 6 credit hours.</ul><p>The student must receive a grade of "B" or better for each course used to satisfy the aboverequirements. However, up to a maximum of two "C" grades will be accepted, if they are offsetby "A" grades in other courses. Only one "C" is accepted in a core course, and it must be offsetby an "A" in a core course.<p> <li>Prior to enrolling in the 17th hour of course work, a student must select a graduate facultymember from within the department to serve as the student's principal advisor. The principaladvisor helps the student formulate an advisory committee. The advisory committee is a groupof three graduate faculty members (including the principal advisor); the committee may includeup to one faculty member from outside the department. The committee members approve thestudent's Plan of Study and give final approval for the student's degree. The advisory committeemust approve the student's performance on the Oral Qualifying Examand the Final Oral Exam. The advisory committee can be changed by the student by submittinga new plan of study before the Oral Qualifying Exam. After the exam, any changes in thecommittee must be approved by the Graduate Committee. <ul><p><li>Oral Qualifying Exam: The oral qualifying examination is not an examination in the truesense of theword, but a proposal for the work to be completed for the M.S. thesis. The student provides awritten proposaland presents it orally to the committee. The written proposal should be delivered to allcommittee membersat least one week prior to the presentation. It is the student's responsibility to schedule a publicpresentationat a mutually agreeable time and to reserve a room. The advisory committee determines whetherthe scope ofthe proposed research is appropriate for a thesis. A majority of the committee members mustapprove theproposed research. Committee members signify their approval by signing the Qualifying ExamApproval Form. The committee chairman outlines suggested changes on the form. A copy of the QualifyingExam ApprovalForm becomes part of the student's departmental file. If the proposed research is not approvedby thecommittee, a second attempt cannot be retaken in less than one month after the failedexamination, nor morethan twelve months after the failed examination. A third attempt is not allowed.<p><li>Final Oral Exam: A final oral examination is given by the student's advisory committee. The studentpresents the thesis and answers questions regarding the work. The written thesis must bedelivered to allcommittee members at least one week prior to the presentation. The presentation must be at leastsixty daysafter the Oral Qualifying Exam. It is the student's responsibility to schedule a publicpresentation at a mutuallyagreeable time and to reserve a room. Only the presentation portion is open to the public. Thepublic may askquestions on the presentation. After the presentation, committee members may ask additionalquestions overmaterial covered in both core courses and courses listed on the Plan of Study. If the studentfails, a secondattempt cannot be retaken in less than one month after the failed examination, nor more thantwelve months afterthe failed examination. A third attempt is not allowed.<p></ul></ol><hr><h3>UNRESOLVED ISSUES</h3>Any issues not covered in this document shall be resolved by the departmental GraduateCommittee inconsultation with the graduate faculty in the Computer Science Department.<p>For more information, try: <br><ul><li><!WA0><a href="http://a.cs.okstate.edu/faculty.html">Computer Science Faculty</a><li><!WA1><a href="http://a.cs.okstate.edu/csequip.html">Departmental Computing Facilities</a><li><!WA2><a href="http://a.cs.okstate.edu/finances.html">Financial Aid for Graduate Students</a><li><!WA3><a href="http://a.cs.okstate.edu/index.html">Return to Computer Science Home Page</a></ul> <hr>Send any requests for more information to: <!WA4><a href="mailto:gradinfo@a.cs.okstate.edu">gradinfo@a.cs.okstate.edu</a><p></body> </html> ⌨️ 快捷键说明
