步骤4: Form a committee of three faculty members. Two members can be from within the department and one can be from other departments like 理学院 and 工程, College of Business or a professor with whom you did an elective course.
步骤5: Get confirmation from committee members to serve on your culminating project committee.
步骤6: Write a synopsis of the project problem you are interested in. Approach the professor who will be the chair of the committee and get their concern. If the chair approves your idea you can develop a proposal.
第七步: The proposal guidelines are posted on a separate link.
第八步: Once your proposal has been reviewed by your chair, send it to the full committee.
步骤9: Once the committee is comfortable with your proposal, select from the available MEM conference dates. Fill out the 最终项目调度表 (posted on the website) and send it to the scheduling GA.

You have to register for at least one credit every semester to maintain your status as an international student.

Please note that your culminating final report should be at least 50 pages in length not including the title pages.

Please note that you must do your final defense in person and make travel arrangements for the same.
步骤16: Send out an email to the Master of 工程 Management list serve (mem-l@lists.chicksthatlift.net) and invite all students in the program to your final presentation.
步骤17: Typically there are 15 minutes for the final presentation and 5 minutes for questions and answers.
