Ph.D. Qualifier Exam in ME |
Exam Procedure The Mechanical Engineering Ph.D. qualifier exam is comprised of written and oral parts. The qualifier exam (both written and oral parts) is to measure a student’s readiness for PhD level research. The written part of the exam is to examine the fundamental knowledge of a Ph.D. student in his/her area of research. The oral exam is to assess a student’s engineering and scientific approach, as well as problem solving skills. In the written exam, a student decides which three areas out of the eight listed below he/she needs to be evaluated. In each area of the exam there will be at least four (4) questions, prepared by at least by two faculty members. Depending on the exam area, Mechanical Engineering Department may ask faculty members from other departments to contribute. The student will be expected to have a short presentation about his/her research field and answer technical questions in the oral exam. The ME PhD Qualifier Exam Jury will include at least five faculty members (2 of the jury members must be from another University). Student’s advisor may participate in the oral exam jury. If a student has 2 advisors, co-advisor of the student may participate to the jury as the 6th member but he/she does not have the right to vote. |
