You must have all transfer work recorded on your transcript and any approved substitutions to your program noted on your degree checklist in your department student file. If you have pursued a special program of study, you need a degree checklist in your department student file indicating that your special program has CSE faculty approval. The Degree Checklist A degree checklist is the list of all courses needed to complete a degree. It indicates when a student anticipates taking the course, when the student actually completes the course, and the grade received.
Checklists are part of each student's permanent file, which is maintained by the department.
For students pursuing one of the nine areas of emphasis for a nonthesis master's degree , a checklist will be provided for you. If you are pursuing a custom program, you must create a checklist in consultation with an advisor. Substitutions, waivers, and transfer credits must be indicated on the form. An advisor's signature and date indicates approval of the program. During the quarter you deposit your thesis with the library, e-mail the CSE academic coordinator to indicate you intend to complete your degree that quarter.
