Graduation Exit Requirement

Students pursuing the ICT master's will submit a research proposal in the form of a written paper and visual presentation as their Graduation Exit Requirement. Students will identify an ICT-related problem space, research current options, propose a new solution, and provide reasoning and evidence that supports the new solution. The project may be new, or it may be an extension to a project started during a student’s internship, as long as the student substantially expands what they did during the internship.
