The prospective student must meet the entrance requirements for the program and will be accepted into unclassified or conditionally classified graduate status by normal procedures. The student will become classified upon completion of MLML's requirements. Each new student in the MS program at MLML will be assigned an advisor who may or may not be the final thesis advisor. These courses may be waived by the graduate committee upon certification that equivalent courses have been satisfactorily completed. MSCI 104 is a prerequisite and cannot be counted toward the 30-unit degree requirement.
Contact MLML for further information.
The other member or members of the thesis committee may also be from MLML, or from the home campus, or elsewhere, with the approval of the thesis advisor. See course descriptions for prerequisites. The student must have submitted a thesis approved by the thesis advisory committee. The thesis must conform to the rules set forth by the home campus. The student must successfully give an oral thesis defense in the form of a seminar open to the general public.
