The final product will be presented in thesis form and carefully scrutinized by two independent referees chosen for their familiarity. with the topic. The subject may be laboratory based, analytic, numerical, or field oriented. The thesis format must follow accepted engineering practice and be of professional quality. Under special circumstances, two suitable courses may be substituted for GEO E 400 and 401.
