The student must be able to understand the field's literature, as well as to summarize and discuss research findings. \no\tIt is strongly recommended that students take ESI 6891 IEMS Research Methods prior to taking the Qualifying Examination. \no\tWhile thinking about taking the Qualifying Examination, students are strongly encouraged to evaluate their options for research and make informed decisions about their area of research interests. \no\tIt is recommended that students seek advice from faculty members whose research interests match their own research areas in order for the students to properly select their electives and develop the appropriate plan of study. \n</div></div></li></ul></div></div></section><section><header data-test=\"grouping-5-header\"><div><h2 data-testid=\"grouping-label\"><span>Candidacy Exam</span></h2></div><div><span>0</span><span>Total Credits</span></div><div><div><button aria-label=\"Collapse\"><i></i></button></div></div></header><div><div><ul><li data-test=\"ruleView-A\"><div data-test=\"ruleView-A-result\"><div>The second exam is the Candidacy Examination. \no\tThe objective of the Candidacy Examination is to determine if the student has the breadth and depth of knowledge required to conduct independent research in the proposed area. \no\tThe Candidacy Examination may be taken any time after successful completion of the Qualifying Examination, but not in the same semester. \no\tThis Exam includes an oral presentation of a detailed dissertation proposal, which becomes the oral candidacy document, and the written component of the Candidacy Examination is satisfied by the proposal document, which becomes the required candidacy document. \n</div></div></li></ul></div></div></section><section><header data-test=\"grouping-6-header\"><div><h2 data-testid=\"grouping-label\"><span>Dissertation Defense</span></h2></div><div><span>0</span><span>Total Credits</span></div><div><div><button aria-label=\"Collapse\"><i></i></button></div></div></header><div><div><ul><li data-test=\"ruleView-A\"><div data-test=\"ruleView-A-result\"><div>The third exam is the Dissertation Defense Examination. \no\tThe Dissertation Defense Examination is an oral examination taken in defense of a completely written dissertation. \no\tThe College of Engineering and Computer Science requires that all dissertation defense announcements are approved by the student's adviser and posted on the college's website and on the Events Calendar of the College of Graduate Studies website at least two weeks before the defense date. \n</div></div></li></ul></div></div></section><h3>Grand Total Credits:<!-- --> <strong>42</strong></h3></div><h1>Financial Information</h1><p>Graduate students may receive financial assistance through fellowships, assistantships, tuition support, or loans.
