🚩 To apply for thesis advisors who are GISE faculty members
(1) Master’s students should confirm their thesis advisors prior to the end of their first academic year. (2) There should be at least one GISE faculty member as one of a student’s advisors. (3) If change of advisor is desired, the students should contact the GISE office for detailed procedure.
🚩 To apply for waiver of science course credit hours
The science courses that the GISE requires master’s students to take should be graduate level courses. Undergraduate-level science courses can only be taken when the courses are in different disciplines from the student’s major field. However, only two thirds of the undergraduate-level science course credit hours can be used to do so, and these credit hours should not be counted toward all the needed credit hours that the student should complete to graduate. As for the rest of the science course credit hours, the student should still take graduate level courses to fulfill.
🚩 To apply for waiver of total credit hours counted toward graduation
In accordance with GISE’s rules, only one fourth of the total credit hours counted toward graduation can be waived.
🚩 To apply for presentation of thesis proposal (first three chapters)
(1) The presentation of thesis proposal should be conducted at least three months prior to the graduate degree exam. (2) The GISE office will notify the students via email about the registration of the presentation of thesis proposal that will be conducted in the following semester. Students who desire to do so should register prior to the deadline indicated in the email. Presentation will not be arranged if the student fails to register prior to deadline.
🚩 To apply for graduate degree exam (oral exam)
(1) The deadlines for the application for graduate degree exam are the end of November of the first semester and the end of May of the second semester. (2) Students who aim to graduate prior to November or May should contact the GISE office for detailed procedure to apply for the graduate degree exam.
