**Before
receiving this degree, the student must pass the EIT
exam.
|
1. |
Select
a committee of 3 persons: 1 or 2 from BRAE, 1 or
2 from CEE. Fill out committee form
obtained at Graduate Studies Office. |
|
2. |
Formal
study plan - to be completed prior to finishing
1st 12 units (available at Graduate Studies
Office). If you did not graduate from an
accredited engineering BS program, be sure to
list EIT exam as a "Conditional"
requirement, as well as other BS level
engineering classes. All candidates for
graduation must eventually provide proof of
passing the EIT exam. |
|
3. |
If
you are planning to use any 400 or 500 level
classes that you took during your undergraduate
work (which did not count for your BS degree),
fill out a "Petition for Special
Consideration" available at the Res. and
Grad. Programs office. |
|
4. |
Pass
the GWR (Graduate Writing Requirement).
Successful completion of the GWR during
undergraduate work will satisfy this. |
|
5. |
Maintain
a 3.0 GPA in all MS classes. |
|
6. |
1-2
quarters prior to graduation, submit the
Advancement to Candidacy form (available at GDO) |
|
7. |
Pass
the FE (Fundamentals in Engineering) exam and
submit proof to Dr. Burt. |
|
8. |
Submit
a Request for M.S. Evaluation (available at the
Evaluations office). Must have already
completed 1-4 above. |
|
9. |
Must
complete the written exam for the M.S.
Arrange for this with Dr. Burt. Generally,
the exam consists of five separate exams from 5
classes. You must pass 4 of the 5.
The graduate coordinator must submit a letter
with his signature (not an e-mail) to the
Evaluations office stating successful
completion, and the date of completion.
Mark Martinez (mmartine@calpoly.edu)
is the be College of Engineering Evaluator for
both undergraduate and graduate programs,
including the BMS programs. |
