Description:

The Masters of Science is a two-year research degree where students conduct an independent Major Research Project (MRP) as the milestone component of the MSc program, under the general direction of a supervisory committee consisting of a principal supervisor and second reader. Projects are defined as a body of work similar to a thesis in quality, scope and/or degree of originality. In particular, the MSc requires an MRP whose topics will include implementation and evaluation of recently published ideas, design and development of novel software/hardware applications, or optimizations of algorithms, processes and systems cognizant of real world constraints, all within the domain of digital media. The project must be documented with a report that details and contextualizes it, and be presented in public.
