CSC 494 - Computer Science Research Capstone, 1-2 credit hours

Prerequisite(s): CSC 291
This class spans a minimum of three semesters and encompasses the entire capstone research experience. During the first semester, students will focus on the identification of a problem and the preparation of a research proposal. In subsequent semesters, students will conduct their research, meeting regularly with their faculty advisor and making presentations to fellow students to obtain valuable feedback. In the final semester students will complete the research, write a thesis on the work, and defend the competed project to a committee of computer science faculty.
