The structure of the report will be determined by the student, their advisor, and their committee. Before students may begin the research report by enrolling in SYA 6507 or SYA 6909, they must earn a grade of &quot;B&quot; (3.0) or better in each of the four required courses (SYA 5625; SYA 6126; at least 2 of the following: SYA 6305, SYA 6315, SYA 6356). Typically, students will form a 2 member faculty committee prior to enrolling in SYA 6507 or SYA 6909. A research report must meet the following requirements and be evaluated by a three member committee of UCF Sociology faculty. Outside committee members may be approved in limited scenarios by the UCF Sociology Graduate Committee. The research report consists of: 1) a 2-3 page proposal describing what the project and the final product will entail, which must be approved by the committee and 2) a research report approved and evaluated by the committee. The grading system for the research report is Pass/No Pass. Students who receive a grade of Pass will be allowed to graduate assuming all other requirements are met.</div></div></li></ul></li></ul></div></div></section><section><header data-test=\"grouping-3-header\"><div><h2 data-testid=\"grouping-label\"><span>Equipment Fee</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>Full-time students in the Applied Sociology MA program pay a $39 equipment fee each semester that they are enrolled.
