Defense or Culminating Experience Requirements
Thesis and report students are required to submit a written work (ETDR) and present an oral presentation open to the public followed by a closed defense in order to complete their graduate program. The details of the expectations are determined by the student's major professor and graduate committee.
Coursework-only students are non-culminating, meaning all degree requirements are within the required curriculum without the need for a seperate final examination as described above.
