Donaghey College of Engineering & Information Technology
2009-2010 Graduate Curriculum Committee
DATE/TIME: Wednesday, March 17, 2010 - 9:00 AM
PLACE: Systems Engineering conference room (ETAS 326)

__________________________________________________________________
Minutes of the meeting held on March 3, 2010 were approved.
Program changes in the Masters Degree in Applied Science were introduced. The Applied Science Department has been offering a Thesis-Option Masters degree. The Department now proposes having a non-thesis option, which has the following differentiation from the existing thesis option:
Thesis Option: 18 credits of course work, which can include up to 6 credits of special topic courses or independent studies. On top of the course work is a 12-credit thesis.
Non-Thesis Option: 24 credits of course work, in which no special topic courses or independent studies are allowed. On top of the course work is a 6-credit project. An oral exam on the project, or an exam equivalent to the existing PhD candidacy exam, is to be conducted by the students advisory committee. The latter exam is to cater for a student who wishes to pursue a PhD following his masters degree.
Subsequent discussions led to the following suggestions to the Applied Science Department:
Provide a clear explanation for the reasons in establishing the non-thesis option.
Better clarification on the detailed guidelines and specific requirements of the non-thesis masters degree.
The proposal was tabled pending a revised, written proposal from the Applied Science Department.
Meeting was adjourned at 10:00 AM, with the next meeting scheduled for March 31, 2010 at 9:00 AM
