Thesis students:

Student’s written thesis and Public Defense of same constitute the comprehensive exam. Student is provided a rubric that they will be assessed by relative to their written document and presentation. The Committee reports this assessment to the Department for final approval.

Non-Thesis Students:

In lieu of the Comprehensive Exam, a portfolio addressing the content from a capstone course in the primary area of study, content from a course in a secondary area of study, and content from a core mathematics course will be submitted upon graduation. The graduate coordinator, chair of the department, and the vice chair of the department will evaluate the submissions according to the overall quality of the writing, the clarity of the explanation of how the outcomes were achieved, and the quality of the examples that are included.
