In addition
to the regular university application requirements, admission to
the Master of Science degree requires the following:
- an undergraduate
degree with a minimum 3.0 (A=4) grade point average
(Students below a 3.0 will be considered for "conditional
admission". This means that they must take three courses
(IAKM 60001, IAKM 60002, and one additional course) in the IAKM
program, and earn Bs or better, to attain total admission to the
program. Failure to meet the specified conditions may result in
a recommendation for dismissal. Decisions on retention/dismissal
are made at the end of each academic semester.)
- satisfactory
scores on the Graduate Record Examination/TOEFL and/or appropriate
professional experience
(The Graduate Record Examination is recommended, because admission
is selective and strong scores from the Graduate Record Examination
may improve one's standing in the selection process.)
- evidence
of computer literacy
(With respect to computer literacy, in addition to evaluating
the computer/information literacy survey included with the application
package, an applicant's record and experience will be assessed
and if the level of literacy does not appear adequate to the demands
of the core course of study, the applicant's advisor will suggest
workshops, courses or other appropriate methods for satisfying
such background requirements. Credits for such workshops or courses
will not apply to the degree.)
- three letters
of recommendation from those in a position to evaluate academic
performance and graduate potential
- a statement
of purpose about how the program will realize the applicant's
career and/or research goals.
- a background
knowledge of statistics and economics is highly desirable.
- a university
application
