Processes, Policies, and Procedures for the courses of MIS 405 Graduation Project I and MIS 406 Graduation Project II As of January 12, 2022
The MIS Graduation Project courses, MIS 405 (8 ECTS) and MIS 406 (10 ECTS) are parts of a group research or design project that students pursue under the guidance of a department mentor. Graduation projects may include, but are not limited to, an entrepreneurship project, a real-world case study, a written assessment of a community-learning initiative, or a design project accompanied by an analytic essay (comprising background, aims, and technique) according to study area of the group's mentor. All questions about the graduation project(s) should be directed to the related Department Mentor.
Students interested in undertaking MIS 405 and MIS 406 should read all sections of the policy and procedures before submitting a proposal.
Graduation projects are student-generated. Generally they are an opportunity to continue a sustained line of inquiry that the students have already begun. A Graduation Project may grow out of a piece of work (an application production, a technology design, a real-world case study, a creative writing piece, a CLI project, etc.) a student has done in a course, tutorial, or independent study. It may also derive from questions or ideas spurred by a student’s meeting/colloquium. Successful graduation projects will involve significant preparation. As such students interested in pursuing a Graduation Project are strongly encouraged to consult with their mentors early in their undergraduate program in order to plan for appropriate coursework and research well in advance.
