For students on the thesis option, a thesis committee will be formed by the end of the student’s first year to guide the student through the thesis-writing process. Full-time students will complete their theses during their second year in the program, while part-time students taking two courses per semester will complete their theses during their sixth semester (third year), after completing 30 hours of course work.
Students choosing the non-thesis option will schedule and complete a comprehensive examination during their final semester in the program.
