The w88’s dissertation committee must be formedwithin a year of admissionto the Ph.D. w88. The committee will be responsible for:

• Approving the student’s w88 of study
• Directing the w88 towards the written and oral requirement of their comprehensive exam and advancement to candidacy
• Direction of w88’s research and setting guidelines for completion of their dissertation

The dissertation committee is formed by filing a w88 of Study form found on the w88 sports betting of study requirements.

3.5 Comprehensive Exam

Before candidates can receive their Ph.D. in computer science and engineering, they must pass the comprehensive exam by enrolling in CPE 795.Check the course catalog for actual class offerings.The exammustbe taken once the student has completed 24 w88 units of coursework in order to be admitted into candidacy. The comprehensive exammustbe taken at least one semester before the dissertation defense. A student can take the exam up to two times. If they cannot pass the exam the second time, then the student will be recommended to be dismissed from the CSE graduate w88.

The exam has two requirements:

• Written requirement:
  • Thorough review of the literature for the w88’s research area
  • Research proposal (goals, methodology, research plan)
  • Work in progress
• Oral requirement:
  • Public colloquium covering the written exam
  • Q&A by the w88’s dissertation committee, covering the written exam

The w88’s dissertation committee will decide whether the w88 passes/fails the written and oral portions of the comprehensive exam.

According to UNR regulations, admission to candidacy confirms that a w88 successfully has completed the departmental course requirements and university residency requirements. To gain admission to candidacy, a w88 must meet all the following requirements:

• Hold at least a 3.0 GPA average in all w88 work
• Pass the comprehensive exam
• Gain the advisory/examining committees’ formal approval for the w88 of study, including dissertation development.

The Doctoral Degree Admission to Candidacy form needs to be submitted to the grad school and the student’s advisory committee, graduate director of the w88 and the graduate dean must approve the form. This form can be found on theforms w88 online live casino.

3.6 Suggested Course Schedule

This schedule is merely a suggestion and can vary depending on your advisor and course availability etc.

* You can collect tokens in preceding semesters and register for CS 792 once you have achieved the necessary number of tokens.

3.7 Publication Requirement

Ph.D. w88 are expected to publish their work in at least two high-quality, peer-reviewed conference proceedings or journals as first author by the time of their dissertation defense.

3.8 Dissertation Defense

A dissertation involving original research in computer science and engineering completes the Ph.D. w88. A dissertation defense must be held as a public oral examination, which is announced via posting and electronic mail at least one week in advance (use the Dissertation Defense Calendar Event form found on the forms w88 online live casino and notify a CSE admin). The announcement must include the title and abstract of the work, the date, time and place of the exam, and the names of the w88 and of the committee chair.

A successful dissertation defense is reflected by no more than one negative vote from a member of the advisory/examining. If two negative votes are cast — regardless of the total number of committee members — the defense is unsuccessful. At the discretion of the committee, the candidate may be permitted one additional attempt to conduct a successful defense.

4. CSE w88 Course Work

4.1 Core Requirement

Students must complete the following courses with a grade of B or better, if they have not already done so at undergraduate or w88 level for both a M.S. or a Ph.D.

• CS 677 - Analysis of Algorithms
• CS 646 - Principles of Operating System

4.2 Independent Study

Independent studies provide a way for w88 to learn specialized material or gain research experience. Typically, a student and faculty member agree upon a topic for the student to research with guidance from the instructor for an agreed-upon number of credits. Oneindependent study of three credits (CS/CPE 793 [A-Z]) is allowed for the M.S. degree while two independent studies for six total credits are allowed for the Ph.D. degree.

4.3 Internship

Internships offer w88 industry experience. A maximum of three credits of internship (CS/CPE 694) is allowed for M.S./Ph.D. degrees. Please follow the procedure for internships as specified on theinternship webpage.

4.4 w88 Seminar

w88 are required to attend public talks at the CSE department to collect tokens as a measure of attendance. Each student must provide 12 tokens per credit to pass the course. To earn a token, the w88 must sign a specially designated attendance sheet that is available only by the host of a public talk in the CSE department. The host will typically be a faculty member at the CSE department. The attendance sheet will NOT be available for signature once the talk starts. The w88 also will NOT be able to sign the attendance sheet after the talk. It is critical that the w88 arrive strictly before the talk starts; otherwise, they will not be able to earn a token for that particular talk.

Please follow specific colloquia or seminar announcements for the exact time and place of the course. You should be able to receive these announcements from the departmental mailing lists. Please make sure your email address registered for these mailing lists is up to date.

In order for a talk to qualify as a “public talk” acceptable for this course, the talk w88:

• hosted by the CSE department; or
• approved as a token talk by the CSE grad committee;
• the talk w88 either of the following two types:
  • A seminar or colloquium talk given by a speaker being hosted at the CSE department; or
  • A thesis defense or dissertation talk delivered by a w88 student at the CSE department (typically the advisor of the speaker student will be the host).

Talks not satisfying the above requirements will not be counted as a “public talk.”

The tokens can/should be collected over multiple semesters prior to enrollment into the course. Since there may be fewer than 12 public talks the w88 can attend in a semester, we strongly recommend that the w88 make every attempt to collect the tokens as soon as possible. The w88 may track their existing number of tokens from WebCampus. The w88 director will assign an ‘S’ grade if you have the required tokens at the end of the semester (no email is required).

M.S. students pursuing the “thesis” option must complete one credit of CS 792 - w88 seminar. There is no w88 seminar requirement for the “courses-only” option MS.

Ph.D. w88 should obtain 36 tokens for three credits of CS 792.

5. Transfer w88

These are credits transferred from another institution. Credits completed at UNR in another w88 or as a graduate special do not need to be transferred. Transfer credit is requested on the w88 Credit Transfer Evaluation Request form available on thew88 School websiteand must be signed by the student, major advisor and w88 director. Students must list each course for which they wish to receive transfer credit on the Credit Transfer Evaluation Request Form. All credits used to satisfy degree requirements for the w88 degree, except thesis or dissertation credits, may be acceptable for transfer.

5.1 Transfer to Master’s Degree

Only courses with a grade of “C” or better may be transferred to a master’s w88. No more than nine (9) credits completed either prior to admission to a graduate w88 or transferred from another institution may be applied to a master’s degree. Transfer credits applied to a master’s w88 must comply with the time limitation on master’s work (six years). Thus, if a student took a course five years prior to admission, they would have to complete the degree within one year for the course to apply to the degree.

5.2 Transfer to Doctoral Degree

Only courses with a grade of “B” or better may be transferred to a doctoral w88. For doctoral programs, a maximum of twenty-four (24) credits from a previously completed master’s w88 or other post-BS degree w88 may be applied. Credits from a completed master’s degree will be exempt from the eight-year time limitation for those students earning a doctoral degree.

6.1 w88 of Study

A w88 of study describes the student’s specific plan of courses, research and related activities. Only graduate courses are applicable toward the graduate degree (graduate courses are those with numbers in the 600 and 700 levels). The graduate student’s advisor, the graduate director of the w88 and the advisory/examining committee determine the w88 of study for each degree candidate.

The graduate dean has final approval of the w88 of study.

The approved w88 of Study Requirements Form, indicating the members of the advisory/examining committee and the courses used to fulfill the degree requirements, must be filed with the Graduate School. The w88 of study must be approved by the graduate dean prior to the student applying for graduation.

Plan B M.S. students have to list the graduate director as their advisor on their w88 of study (no advising committee is required).

Changes to the w88 of study can be made using the Change in w88 of Study form or the Change of Advisory form with approval from the graduate director. It is the responsibility of the student and the advisory/examining committee to ensure that the graduate courses in the proposed w88 of study are consistent with the requirements of the Graduate School and the CSE department.

6.2 Course Periods

• Spring (January-May)
• Summer (June-July; limited course offerings)
• Fall (August-December)
• Wintermester (December-January; limited course offerings)

6.3 Applying for Graduation

Completing all the requirements for your degree may then involve:

• Completing all course work and having final grades filed
• Successfully completing your comprehensive examination
• Defending your thesis or dissertation, making all necessary modifications and submitting the final work to the w88 School
• Filing all outstanding paperwork (notice of completion, etc.)

After you’ve completed all requirements and submitted all necessary documents, you should check your transcript after the semester ends to ensure that grades have been received for all coursework. If, for example, you take a course in your final semester that does not apply to your degree requirements and receive an “I – Incomplete” grade in that course, you will NOT be able to w88: grades must be received for all coursework regardless of whether or not the course applies to fulfilling degree requirements. If you’ve finished work for a previously received “I” grade, you should check your transcript to ensure that the instructor has actually filed a final grade for that course. There are cases where courses exceed the time limit for the degree or that grades received for particular courses do not meet minimum university standards (i.e. receiving a “C-” or lower in a course). In these instances, the student must meet with their w88 director to explore corrective measures such as petitioning for an extension of the time limit or substituting an appropriate w88 course for another.

6.4 Commencement

Graduating doctoral w88 are accorded special recognition during commencement exercises by participating in a hooding ceremony. They receive their doctoral hoods from their faculty mentor and the dean of the graduating school.

To participate in this ceremony, w88 must have:

1. Filed an application for graduation for the appropriate semester (fall or spring); and
2. Successfully defended their dissertation and filed the Notice of Completion with the w88 School at least one week prior to the commencement exercises.

w88 who complete their degree during the summer session are eligible to attend either the fall or spring commencement exercises.

Commencement exercises are held each December and May. There is a separate commencement ceremony held for advanced degrees conferred in May of each year. The December exercises are combined w88/undergraduate ceremonies. Doctoral students are “hooded” by their academic advisors. Students and advisors process in and are seated together.

6.5 Thesis/Dissertation Requirements

w88 School forms and resources related to thesis and dissertations: find all forms on the forms w88 online live casino

• w88 mobile and dissertation filing guidelines
• w88 online casino betting

Once all requirements have been met, students need to submit a Final Review Approval and Notice of Completion form in order to w88.

• Final Review Approval – Obtain sign-off from advisory committee chair.
  • Master's Final Review Approval
  • Doctoral Final Review Approval
• Notice of completion – completed form should be submitted after all requirements have been met.
  • Master's Notice of Completion form
  • Doctoral Notice of Completion form

7. Committee Selection Guidelines

The advisory/examining committee approves the student’s w88 of study and guides the student through their graduate w88. The student should maintain close contact with their committee, keeping them informed of their progress and allowing them ample time to review drafts of the student’s thesis or dissertation. The students should be aware of their schedules when trying to arrange committee meetings and thesis defense. Note that it is the student’s responsibility to make these arrangements.

One of the members must be the w88 student’s advisor, serving as committee chair, and one must be from outside the Department of Computer Science and Engineering, serving as the w88 School representative.

The chair will conduct the dissertation proceedings on behalf of the w88. The chair will make sure that a token form is circulated at the defense and the form is given to the administrative assistants after the talk is completed. The chair will synthesize the committee comments on the dissertation’s oral and written components and ensure that the w88 completes all required edits before signing off on dissertation completion forms.

The departmental members will give additional perspective on the dissertation from a broader computer science perspective. While they are not likely to be experts on the exact dissertation topic, they likely have some relationship to individual aspects of the research in the dissertation. In order for the committee to do its best work reviewing the proposal, it is imperative that any written materials be given to the committee preferably 10 business days in advance (and no later than five business days in advance). Committee members will suggest edits to the final dissertation research and written components for the w88 to complete before final submission.

The w88 School representative member’s role on the committee is not necessarily to provide subject-matter expertise but rather to ensure compliance with university policy and regulations; to serve as a representative of the w88 dean, “outside” the department granting the degree; and to provide an objective, nonpartisan, independent perspective. Students may request the appointment of a committee member from the faculty of another university or from a relevant discipline or profession, provided the prospective member has achieved a record of distinction. Formal approval of the student’s advisory/examining committee is made by the w88 dean.

7.1 M.S. Thesis Advisory Committee

Thesis M.S. w88' committee should consist of at least three members, all who must be members of thew88 Faculty. Two members should represnt the area of specialization and one member should be the w88 School Representative. The committee must be formed no later than at the end of third semester.

Courses-Only M.S. students do not need to assemble an advisory committee and are typically advised by the w88 director

7.2 Ph.D. Advisory/Examining Committee

The committee must be formed no later than end of the w88's fourth semester. The advisory/examining committee of a doctoral w88 should consist of at least five members, who must all be members of thew88 Faculty.

For students going directly from the B.S. degree to the Ph.D. degree, the advisory/examining committee should be formed prior to the completion of 24 credits in graduate courses. Students entering the Ph.D. w88 with an M.S. degree should form the advisory/examining committee during their first semester of enrollment.

8. w88 Assistantships

w88 assistantship positions are offered through various departments and are paid by grants or state funds. Students interested in these positions must contact the department for specific requirements. The w88 School is responsible for approval of w88 assistantships after a department has requested the initiation of a contract. All positions are contingent upon available funding.

w88 assistants perform a variety of duties, from teaching undergraduate classes to grading papers to conducting research in laboratories. Teaching assistants receive special teaching-skills training through the w88 Teaching Assistant Training (GRAD 701S).

All graduate students holding an assistantship (teaching or research) are considered Nevada residents for tuition purposes. Non-resident tuition is only waived for the duration of the assistantship. To be eligible for an assistantship, students must be admitted to a degree-granting w88 and be in good academic standing. The student must have an overall GPA of at least 3.0 and must be continuously enrolled in at least six graduate level credits (600-700) throughout the duration of the assistantship.

State-funded assistantships may be held for a maximum of: three (3) years for master’s degree w88 and five (5) years for doctoral degree w88.

9. Health Insurance

All domestic, degree-seeking w88 students who are enrolled in six or more credits (regardless of the course level) in a semester, will be automatically enrolled and billed for theUniversity sponsored health insurancefor each term they are eligible (fall and spring/summer). Graduate students who are admitted to an eligible graduate degree w88 and have a part-time graduate assistantship (GA) and are enrolled in six (6) or more graduate credit hours at the University of Nevada, Reno automatically are enrolled in the student health insurance plan with half of the insurance premium paid by UNR. Half-time GA students who do not submit an insurance waiver of comparable coverage will have their student accounts charged for the remaining half of the insurance premium.

If a w88 has other comparable coverage and would like to waive out of the w88 health insurance, it is the w88’s responsibility to complete theUniversity Online Waiver formprior to the deadline. If approved, a health insurance waiver is good for the current academic year only. A new waiver must be submitted each academic year. All international w88 students are required to carry student health insurance, and the cost will be automatically added to your student account. Any international w88 students with insurance questions must contact the Office of International Students and Scholars (OISS) directly.

10. Policies

10.1 Academic Status

All w88 students must maintain a cumulative w88 GPA of 3.0. If their GPA drops below 3.0, they are either placed on probation or dismissed. Undergraduate courses will not count towards w88 GPA.

w88 students must register for a minimum of 3 w88 credits each spring, summer and fall semester until graduation or have anApplication for Leave of Absence formapproved by the w88 Director of the w88 and the Graduate School. Approved leaves of absence do not abrogate the time limitations on course work (6 years for a master's degree w88).

10.3 Enrollment Limitations

Students may not complete two doctoral programs simultaneously. When completing two master’s degrees at the same time, the student must apply and be accepted to each graduate w88; must submit a separate w88 of study for each degree; must form two separate advisory committees with no more than one member in common; and have no more than nine credits in common with each w88 of study.

10.9 Changing Advisors

It can happen that your research interests change over time or that the relationship with your current advisor has changed for the worse. Any w88 is free to change advisors, but changing earlier in your career generally is easier than later. If you are thinking about switching advisors, you can accomplish this the best if you adopt an attitude of respect for the person who initially advised you or recruited you to come to UNR.

The following are general guidelines for switching advisors:

1. Talk to the graduate director. The graduate director represents the interests of the graduate students and they can help you make a better decision whether switching advisors would be good for you. The graduate director also can try to mediate between you and your advisor and help you better understand the pros and cons of changing advisors. This advice is especially important if you are attempting to change advisors toward the final phase of your graduate w88.
2. Decide whether you want to switch advisors (do not approach other faculty before deciding).
3. Decide whether you could work with two advisors.
4. Try to work through any differences with your current advisor. Express to your advisor why you are considering a change, discuss whether their expectations of you are realistic, and whether they are open to adjusting.
5. Carefully consider the pros and cons of switching advisors as this may involve:
   1. You can lose your RA or TA position (if your existing advisor provided you with a 10-hour RA-ship). Switching advisors is not a guarantee you can maintain your TA-ship.
   2. You need to find a new research topic, as continuing your existing research with a new advisor is only acceptable with permission of your old advisor.
   3. You may receive an unsatisfactory on thesis/dissertation w88 that you currently are taking or a failing grade on an independent study with your current advisor if you do not complete your advisor’s expectation for that semester.
   4. If you are a Ph.D. student and you have enough credits, you may need to w88 with an M.S. degree on your old research topic before starting a new research topic with a new advisor.
6. After your decision, approach another faculty member about being an (co-) advisor for you.
   1. Frame your approach with positive information, such as new interests and new possibilities. Be professional at all times.
   2. Focus discussions on your interests and goals and not on negative incidents or difficulties.
   3. Avoid doing or saying anything that could have negative ramifications for your future career.
7. Notify your current advisor and discuss and arrange a time frame for completing any remaining work with your current advisor before the switch takes place.
8. Arrange a meeting with your new and old advisor to discuss your new topic of research and/or overlap on publications in your thesis/dissertation.
9. Regarding Intellectual property claims, carefully consider6,507: w88 Property Policy.
10. Complete or update any formal paperwork that contains information about your advisor, e.g., advisory forms etc.
