A supervisory committee will consist of a student\u2019s Faculty Advisor (who will serve as Committee Chair) and at least 2-3 additional faculty members. At least two of the committee members must be faculty whose primary appointment is in the Department of Computing &amp; Software Systems. The Chair of the Committee and at least one-half of the total membership must be members of the graduate faculty.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Students must submit a signed <a href=\"\/stem\/graduate\/cybersecurity\/advising\/forms#supervisory-committee\">Request to Form a Supervisory Committee<\/a> to the CSS Graduate Advisor to obtain an entry code to register for the class. Included with the signed form should be a proposal (minimum of 3 pages, maximum of 6 pages) addressing the questions asked in section 2 of the form. Please follow the proposal guidelines detailed in the link below. You can use the proposal template to aid in constructing your proposal, and you can use the rubric to evaluate that your proposal is complete.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.uwb.edu\/stem\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/31\/2024\/09\/stem-ms-css-defense-proposal-guidelines-1.pdf\">Proposal guidelines<\/a><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.uwb.edu\/stem\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/31\/2024\/09\/stem-ms-css-defense-proposal-rubric-1.pdf\">Proposal rubric<\/a><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.uwb.edu\/stem\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/31\/2024\/12\/stem-ms-css-defense-proposal-template.docx\">Proposal template<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Before submitting the form, students are expected to attend another students CSS master&#8217;s project or thesis final examination &amp; defense. <a href=\"\/stem\/graduate\/defense-schedule\">View the Thesis\/Project Final Exam Schedule<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The deadline for all committee requests is <strong>the first day of the seventh week of the quarter PRECEDING the start of a student\u2019s project or thesis coursework<\/strong>. Students should request for specific faculty to staff their Supervisory Committee; however, final staffing assignments of the Supervisory Committee resides with the CSS Department&#8217;s Graduate Program Coordinator. Once a supervisory request has been granted, students will receive an email from the CSS Graduate Advisor notifying them of the approved committee and an entry code to register for their thesis\/project credit(s). Students are encouraged to submit their request early, to avoid any registration late fees.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Submission Deadlines<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Spring 2026: February 17, 2026<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Summer 2026: May 11, 2026<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Autumn 2026: August 3, 2026<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Step 2: File a Thesis or Project Plan<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>By the end of the second week of the quarter in which a student is registered for their first capstone credits, the student must submit to their Supervisory Committee a detailed project or thesis plan.  The plan should include an updated proposal of the work to be done, a time table listing key milestones and associated deliverables, the quality criteria and specific metrics by which student expects to measure the quality of their result, and the software development lifecycle and processes planned to complete the work.  There are no penalties for deviations in the approved plan or failure to meet the estimates in the timetable or failure to achieve the quality goals.  The plan simply provides a well-defined start for the remainder of the capstone work.  A PDF copy of the approved plan must be submitted by the student to the STEM Graduate Advising Office.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Submission Deadlines<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Winter 2026: January 16, 2026<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Spring 2026: April 10, 2026<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Summer 2026: July 6, 2026<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>To submit your plan to the STEM Graduate Office, please send your PDF document to <a href=\"mailto:stemgrad@uw.edu\">stemgrad@uw.edu<\/a>, with the subject line \u201cProject Plan\u201d or \u201cThesis Plan\u201d.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Register for CSSSKL 594<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>A substantial working draft of the capstone research project paper or thesis should be completed by the beginning of the quarter in which you expect to graduate. For this reason, generally, you will enroll in CSSSKL 594 \u201cScientific Writing for Thesis\/Project\u201d during the quarter before you expect to graduate.  (For example, to graduate in the spring, you should enroll in 594 in the Winter). Please consult with your supervisory committee chair as to the best timing of this class for the most benefit to you.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Step 3: Communicate Regular Progress Reports with the Supervisory Committee<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Throughout the period of enrollment in the thesis\/project credit(s), students are expected to lead the effort to regularly update their Supervisory Committee members on their work progress. Students should plan on meeting with their Committee Chair frequently based on the advice from the committee chair (minimally three times in each quarter that they are enrolled for thesis\/project credits). Students on an F1 Visa are required to meet with their Chair in-person at least once per quarter.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To register for second and subsequent quarters, students should work with their Chair to determine the workload for the upcoming quarter and the number of credits to enroll for. Once the Committee Chair grants permission and confirms the number of credits for the next quarter, the student forwards that permission to the CSS Graduate Advisor, who will issue a new entry code to use for registration. In cases where satisfactory progress is made, the student will be issued of a grade of <a href=\"https:\/\/grad.uw.edu\/policies\/grading-practices-for-graduate-students\/\">N (in progress)<\/a> until the project\/thesis is complete.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Students who fail to make appropriate progress in their project\/thesis during a quarter may receive a notification from their Chair warning them of lack of progress.  If students continue failing to achieve satisfactory progress, Chairs may also choose to issue a grade of NC (No Credit) and move to dissolve the Committee. For full information regarding the project\/thesis continuation policy, please see the <a href=\"\/stem\/graduate\/cybersecurity\/advising\/academic-progress-policy\">Academic Progress Policy<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.uwb.edu\/stem\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/31\/2023\/06\/stem-ms-css-defense-status-report-guidelines.pdf\">Guidelines for Status Reports<\/a><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.uwb.edu\/stem\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/31\/2023\/06\/stem-ms-css-defense-status-report-rubric.pdf\">Rubric for Status Reports<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Step 4: Schedule Final Defense<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>By 5PM on Thursday of the third week of the quarter that a student is registered for their final thesis\/project credits, the student must consult with their supervisory committee members to schedule a defense of their culminating work.  Students should work closely with their committee chair to ensure that they are ready for their final examination and defense.  The STEM Graduate Advising Office will send students the link to the online scheduling system each quarter to select a time\/date for their defense.  View details about defense format options and attendance requirements in the <a href=\"\/stem\/graduate\/cybersecurity\/advising\/thesis-project-process\/defense-attendance-policy\">Defense Attendance Policy<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Step 5: Apply to Graduate<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>By 5:00 p.m. on Thursday of the third week of the quarter that a student is registered for their final degree credits the student must apply to graduate by <a href=\"https:\/\/webapps.grad.uw.edu\/student\/mastapp.aspx\">filing a master\u2019s degree request online<\/a>.  Students should work with the CSS Graduate Advisor and Committee Chair to plan their degree curriculum accordingly, so that their final capstone requirements serve as the culmination of their degree coursework. Students must be registered for credits during the quarter they want to graduate.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Step 6: Submit Draft of Final Paper\/Thesis<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Writing the final paper\/thesis is a time intensive process. Students should plan ahead to schedule substantial time to compose and proofread their paper\/thesis. A low-quality paper\/thesis may lead to the delay of their defense. Early in the quarter that a student is registered for their final thesis\/project credits, the student must review the following sample templates and discuss with their committee chair on the preference for the organization of their final project or thesis report:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/grad.uw.edu\/for-students-and-post-docs\/thesisdissertation\/etd-formatting-guidelines\/\">Guidelines from the UW Graduate School for thesis document<\/a><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/people.ece.uw.edu\/mamishev\/word\/\">Word template for thesis and project papers<\/a><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/staff.washington.edu\/fox\/tex\/uwthesis.shtml\">Latex template for thesis and project papers<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Two weeks before the defense<\/strong>, <a href=\"https:\/\/forms.office.com\/Pages\/ResponsePage.aspx?id=W9229i_wGkSZoBYqxQYL0mOuvdSndTlEvzWJrmZbG3JUMVhGSFA4RzA2RjlJVzlMMkQ5REdCOUZYUC4u\">submit the title and abstract<\/a> to the School of STEM Office of Graduate Studies to post on the Final Examination &amp; Defense schedule.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>At least <strong>seven days<\/strong> before the defense, the student must submit a final draft of their project paper or thesis to their committee for a preliminary reading. The purpose of this draft is to demonstrate to the Supervisory Committee that the student has achieved a Master\u2019s level competency in computer science and software engineering, and that the student is ready to defend their work.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Step 7: Final Examination and Defense<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The Final Examination and Defense consists of (a) a public student presentation, (b) a public questions and answers session, (c) a closed-door question and answer session between the student and the Supervisory Committee, (d) a brief private discussion among the Supervisory Committee, and (e) the Supervisory Committee announcing to the student the result of the Final Examination and Defense. A typical defense will last close to two hours.  If a student does not pass the Final Examination and Defense, the Supervisory Committee will work with the student to decide upon the necessary additional work required for obtaining their Master\u2019s degree.  The final examination and defense must take place no later than the third day of the last week of the quarter (final exam week).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.uwb.edu\/stem\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/31\/2023\/06\/stem-ms-css-defense-presentation-guidelines.pdf\">Presentation Guidelines<\/a><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.uwb.edu\/stem\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/31\/2023\/06\/stem-ms-css-defense-presentation-rubric.pdf\">Presentation Rubric<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Step 8: File your Thesis or Project Paper<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>After passing their final examination\/defense, students must submit an electronic copy (PDF) of their final project paper or thesis, incorporating any post examination\/defense revisions required by their Committee to the following entities in the order listed:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Supervisory Committee members, by the time\/date given to students by their Chairs.
