Each student has the opportunity to select a track and can work with an advisor to customize their coursework by integrating multiple areas of science, technology, engineering, and mathematics. This is an ideal option for students who may have interest in more than one STEM-based major offered by the university, but a single degree does not meet the needs of a student's plans.</p> <br /> <p>The Integrated Sciences & Technology B.S. degree offers two tracks designed to let students develop a program tailored to their career and professional goals. Pulling from existing STEM-based courses, minors and certificate programs, this degree may be an especially attractive option for students preparing for a science-based industry or professional career, for those interested a law degree or those who have continued interest teaching science education at the secondary-school level (separate certification is required). Students may also design their program to give them an ideal background for multiple areas of graduate study.</p> <br /> <p>To assist in course planning, we encourage students to consider the relevant STEM-based minors and certificate programs that complement the degree experience. These are identified within each of the two tracks.</p> <br /> <p><u>Degree Requirements</u></p> <ul> <li>Students who change degree programs and select this major must adopt the most current catalog.</li> <li>Courses designated Common Program Prerequisites are usually completed in the first sixty hours.</li> <li>Prior to enrolling in CHM2045 and any MAC course, you must take the Chemistry Placement Test and Math Placement Test ~ <a href=\"https://www.sdes.ucf.edu/placement-tests/\">https://www.sdes.ucf.edu/placement-tests/ </a></li> </ul>",

"description": "<p>There is a global need for electronics that are safe, reliable, and trustworthy, especially for harsh environments under wide range of temperature, humidity, and radiation conditions. The design, manufacturing, testing, and use of these microchips is challenged by a number of factors, including disruptions of the manufacturing chain as well as an urgent need for a rapid increase in the skilled electronics workforce, as well as parts evaluation engineers. The proposed partnership between UCF CECS and the NASA Electronics Parts and Packaging (NEPP) program will address this need, and UCF will be the first partner university for Space and defense electronics applications, meeting the needs of our graduates and of our industrial partners.</p> <p>The NEPP is promoting the development of a NASA Parts Engineering Program alongside university partners through NASA center-wide collaborations between NASA Jet Propulsion Laboratory (JPL), Goddard Space Flight Center (GSFC), Marshall Space Flight Center (MSFC), Langley Research Center (LaRC), and Kennedy Space Center (KSC). The program aims to address the knowledge gap in the current electronic parts engineering workforce and will lead to increases in the number of trained professionals in the workforce, including the cultivation of the next generation of Parts Engineers.</p> <p>Students in this program will gain foundational knowledge in engineering assessment, reliability-related performance for all Electrical Electronic Electromechanical (EEE) parts. Their training will equip them to support projects through informed part selection that maximizes reliability across the project life cycle while balancing schedule and cost constraints. They will develop strong competencies in overseeing part procurement and collaborating with parts manufacturers to ensure compliance with engineering requirements.</p> <p>Additionally, students will learn how to establish comprehensive testing plans for EEE parts, including screening and qualification test campaigns and any screening and qualification campaigns, failure analysis, and the evaluation of test results to determine suitability for space flight usage. Students will also be able to assess the capabilities of emerging EEE technologies and suppliers for spaceflight use. These skills will benefit not only NASA, but also the rapidly expending commercial space sector and other critical infrastructure sectors that rely on microelectronic devices and integrated circuits operating in harsh environments.</p><p><b>Please note: </b>Electronic Parts Engineering Graduate Certificate may be completed fully online, although not all elective options or program prerequisites may be offered online. Newly admitted students choosing to complete this program exclusively via UCF online classes may enroll with a reduction in campus-based fees.<br />International students (F or J visa) are required to enroll in a full-time course load of 9 credit hours during the fall and spring semesters. Only 3 of the 9 credit hours may be taken in a completely online format.

"description": "<p>The Data Analytics MS, Artificial Intelligence (AI) Track is part of the interdisciplinary Master of Science program in Data Analytics, offered jointly by the departments of Computer Science and Statistics. The track emphasizes the technical aspects of artificial intelligence in data analytics, including artificial intelligence algorithm design, advanced object oriented programming, acquisition, management, mining, analysis, and interpretation of data. It is a 30 credit hour program. Students are taught in cohorts by face-to-face/ hybrid synchronous instruction. The program has a required semester-long project, but does not require a thesis. The overall goal is to provide artificial intelligence technical skills to professionals in Florida. While governments want to use artificial intelligence data to improve the life of their citizens, businesses are keen on exploiting AI to better serve their customers. Consequently, there is an increasing demand for Artificial Intelligence practitioners who can create, adapt, and use state-of- the-art tools to obtain insights into automated processes. Usually people with this training have the title of “AI Analyst”, “machine learning engineer”, “computer system engineers”, “network engineers”, and “information security engineer”. Graduates may go on to complete a Ph.D. in Computer Science, Statistics, or a related area and may also seek professional distinction.</p>",

Students are encouraged to select with their advisor to determine courses as electives that will enhance their background in the health care industry. These may be used to build minors and certificates offered by the University.</p><p>Examples include: Health Information Management, Health Services Administration, Health Sciences, Aging Studies, Public Administration, and Business.</p><p><em><strong>Foreign Language Requirements</strong></em><br/><em>Admissions</em><br/>Two years of one foreign language in high school, or one year of one foreign language in college (or equivalent proficiency exam) prior to graduation.</p><p><em>Graduation</em><br/>Students who transfer with an AA degree from a Florida College System institution and will be pursuing a BS degree must meet the University foreign language admission requirements for graduation.</p><h4><em>Additional Requirements</em></h4><p>As a requirement for the Bachelor of Science in Health Informatics, students must complete an internship in health informatics to provide experiential learning in the field. In order to participate in the HCI Internship the student must: 1) Have earned at least 90 Credit Hours prior to the start of the semester in which they must take internship orientation (a zero credit hour course); 2) Have earned at least 24 HCI Credit Hours prior to the start of the semester in which the internship begins; 3) Have a Major GPA of 2.75 prior the start of the semester in which the internship begins. Additionally, many health care organizations will require that students complete a background check, which may include, but not be limited to, law enforcement finger printing, state driving records, credit reports, and criminal records check. The cost of the background check is the student's responsibility. Background checks may take time to complete and, subsequently, could delay the student's internship placement. Students who have potential background issues must contact the Director of Internships to schedule an interview in order to discuss the impact on field placement. The Health Informatics Program cannot guarantee internship placement or subsequent degree completion for students who do not pass background checks and/or receive a passing grade in the Internship course.</p><h4><em>School-Level Exit Requirements</em></h4><ul> <li>Students earn an overall GPA of at least 2.5 for all coursework.</li> </ul><h4><em>University Minimum Exit Requirements</em></h4><ul> <li>A 2.0 UCF GPA</li> <li>42 semester hours of upper division credit completed</li> <li>30 of the last 39 hours of course work must be completed in residency at UCF.</li> <li>A maximum of 45 hours of extension, correspondence, CLEP, Credit by Exam, and Armed Forces credits permitted.</li> <li>Complete the General Education Program, the State Writing and Math Requirement, and nine hours of Summer credit.</li> </ul>",

For more information, see the College of Graduate Studies Funding website, which describes the types of financial assistance available at UCF and provides general guidance in planning your graduate finances. The Financial Information section of the Graduate Catalog is another key resource.</p><h2>Fellowship Information</h2><p>Fellowships are awarded based on academic merit to highly qualified students. They are paid to students through the Office of Student Financial Assistance, based on instructions provided by the College of Graduate Studies. Fellowships are given to support a student's graduate study and do not have a work obligation. For more information, see UCF Graduate Fellowships, which includes descriptions of university fellowships and what you should do to be considered for a fellowship.</p><p>The Forensic Science MS Track is designed to service the needs of both practicing professionals and full-time students who desire an advanced program of study in forensic science. The program is comprised of three concentrations: <strong>Forensic Analysis, Forensic Biochemistry</strong> and <strong>Forensic Professional</strong>. The Forensic Biochemistry and Forensic Analysis concentrations require the student to perform original research and defend a written thesis. The Forensic Professional concentration is a nonthesis option comprised of course work and an independent study capstone project.</p><p>Forensic Science is a highly interdisciplinary science, as reflected in the following programs of study. The interdisciplinary nature of the program makes it imperative that students seek advising from faculty members on the appropriateness of this program towards their future career as well as the content of courses to ensure that they have the appropriate background to master the course content.</p><p><em><strong>Thesis Options</strong></em></p><p>The grounding in scientific research methodology provided by the thesis requirement is a central focus of the thesis-based concentrations. The Forensic Analysis and Forensic Biochemistry concentrations are comprised of 32 credit hours of study beyond the BS degree. Students will conduct research either on site or at the professional laboratories where they work. In either case, a member of the UCF Forensic Science faculty will act as research adviser and approve the research topic. This research culminates in the writing and presentation of the thesis.</p><p>The student's research adviser will select the thesis examination committee, consisting of two UCF faculty members and at least one other acknowledged forensic expert in the field. The student will present his/her thesis for examination by the committee. The thesis must be judged worthy of publication by the review committee and may not be submitted for examination until approved. For students choosing to conduct research at non-UCF sites, the thesis adviser may visit the student's laboratory where the research is to be performed, before the research begins and on a regular basis until the work is complete.</p><ul> <li><strong>Forensic Analysis Concentration:</strong> The Forensic Analysis concentration emphasizes the application of modern chromatographic, spectroscopic and micro-analytical techniques to problems in forensic science.</li> <li><strong>Forensic Biochemistry Concentration:</strong> The Forensic Biochemistry concentration has a strong biochemistry-DNA focus to serve the needs of supervisory personnel in DNA sections of crime laboratories. National DNA standards mandate that such personnel have advanced degrees.</li> </ul><p><em><strong>Nonthesis Option</strong></em></p><p>The nonthesis concentration is specifically designed for the forensic analyst who currently holds employment in an operational forensic laboratory or has previously worked for a minimum of three years in an operational forensic laboratory. Applicants who do not meet these criteria must apply for one of the thesis-based concentrations. This specialized program option is not designed for international applicants.</p><ul> <li><strong>Forensic Professional Concentration: </strong>The Forensic Professional concentration is comprised of 34 credit hours of study beyond the bachelor of science degree but does not require an original laboratory-based research project. The Forensic Professional concentration culminates in a one-credit-hour independent study capstone project performed under the direction of one of the faculty members in the program.</li> </ul>",

The program is comprised of three concentrations: <strong>Forensic Analysis, Forensic Biochemistry</strong> and <strong>Forensic Professional</strong>. The Forensic Biochemistry and Forensic Analysis concentrations require the student to perform original research and defend a written thesis. The Forensic Professional concentration is a nonthesis option comprised of course work and an independent study capstone project.</p> <p>Forensic Science is a highly interdisciplinary science, as reflected in the following programs of study. The interdisciplinary nature of the program makes it imperative that students seek advising from faculty members on the appropriateness of this program towards their future career as well as the content of courses to ensure that they have the appropriate background to master the course content.</p> <br /> <p><u><strong>Thesis Options</strong></u></p> <p>The grounding in scientific research methodology provided by the thesis requirement is a central focus of the thesis-based concentrations. The Forensic Analysis and Forensic Biochemistry concentrations are comprised of 32 credit hours of study beyond the BS degree. Students will conduct research either on site or at the professional laboratories where they work. In either case, a member of the UCF Forensic Science faculty will act as research adviser and approve the research topic. This research culminates in the writing and presentation of the thesis.</p> <p>The student's research adviser will select the thesis examination committee, consisting of two UCF faculty members and at least one other acknowledged forensic expert in the field. The student will present his/her thesis for examination by the committee. The thesis must be judged worthy of publication by the review committee and may not be submitted for examination until approved. For students choosing to conduct research at non-UCF sites, the thesis adviser may visit the student's laboratory where the research is to be performed, before the research begins and on a regular basis until the work is complete.</p> <ul> <li><strong>Forensic Analysis Concentration:</strong> The Forensic Analysis concentration emphasizes the application of modern chromatographic, spectroscopic and micro-analytical techniques to problems in forensic science.</li> <li><strong>Forensic Biochemistry Concentration:</strong> The Forensic Biochemistry concentration has a strong biochemistry-DNA focus to serve the needs of supervisory personnel in DNA sections of crime laboratories. National DNA standards mandate that such personnel have advanced degrees.</li> </ul> <p><u><strong>Nonthesis Option</strong></u></p> <p>The nonthesis concentration is specifically designed for the forensic analyst who currently holds employment in an operational forensic laboratory or has previously worked for a minimum of three years in an operational forensic laboratory. Applicants who do not meet these criteria must apply for one of the thesis-based concentrations. This specialized program option is not designed for international applicants.</p> <ul> <li><strong>Forensic Professional Concentration: </strong>The Forensic Professional concentration is comprised of 34 credit hours of study beyond the bachelor of science degree but does not require an original laboratory-based research project. The Forensic Professional concentration culminates in a one-credit-hour independent study capstone project performed under the direction of one of the faculty members in the program.</li> </ul>",
