Information for Graduate Students

The following summarizes the formal requirements and procedures of the M.S. in Computer Science and Ph.D. in Computer Science degree programs. Other pertinent information can be obtained from the bulletin of the Graduate School of the University of Utah.

Many aspects apply to both the M.S. and Ph.D. degree programs in Computer Science. The M.S. degree requires a thesis, and the Ph.D. degree a dissertation, to be completed and successfully defended before the degree can be awarded. (In the discussion that follows, the term ``thesis'' is sometimes used to refer to both.) Information that applies specifically to M.S. and Ph.D. are discussed in separate sections.

Please see the Graduate Coordinator for additional material regarding administrative guidelines, procedures, and help. It is the responsibility of the student to initiate processing the various forms; however, the School of Computing and the Graduate School will try to help you in any way possible.
