All students in the major, including Honors students, must complete the two-semester Senior Design I and II sequence.
For summa cum laude only, the student must do an oral presentation and defense of the thesis for the advisor and the two readers. The oral presentation (~30 minutes in length) is followed by a Q&A session (~30 minutes in length).
All theses must be approved by a three member committee. At least one committee member (not necessarily the advisor) must be a tenure-track faculty member at the University of Minnesota, and at least one must be affiliated with the department in which the thesis is conducted.
