Explanation

Contains the information about graduate benchmarks for AM/MS candidates from SRS screen 144, and also thesis information from SRS 145.

  • Searching text strings in the thesis titles.
  • Determining which students must do a master's project in lieu of a research paper.

Cautions

  • Graduate students often receive a Master's degree on their way to getting a PhD degree. Some graduate programs are "tracked", that is, the master's work automatically feeds into the doctoral work. For such programs, the PHD_DISSERTATION table must also be queried, to get the complete graduate benchmark "picture."
