Computer Science MQPs [2006-2007]

                                                                                                                    

We are currently offering the following Major Qualifying Projects (MQPs) in Computer Science.  Projects should preferably begin in term A and end in term D, though it is possible to start in any term and end after four terms (including term E).  The credit distribution for each term will be 1/6 units of preparation in the first term, followed by three terms of 1/3 unit work.  Each project will generally be co-advised by another CS faculty (like Prof. Selkow, Prof. Ciaraldi or others).  You can learn more about the projects offered in 2006 by looking at this powerpoint presentation.
