All courses taken must be approved in advance by the student’s supervisory committee. Students must also successfully complete the non-credit course MCSC 6000G - Graduate Seminar in Modelling and Computational Science  and the 15-credit MCSC 6001G - MSc Thesis . The latter is evaluated by an examining committee and involves an oral presentation.
