Comprehensive Committee & Reading List - Data Science, Analytics, and Artificial Intelligence

For DSAAI PhD students.

The Supervisor determines the comprehensive committee, reading list, and submits this form.

The comprehensive aims to assess the student’s ability to do doctoral research and serves as a starting point for the Ph.D. literature survey and selection of a research topic.

The student prepares and submits a document focusing on the problem statement, literature review, and gap analysis for the comprehensive exam. The student defends their submission in an oral exam, including questions from examiners, but no presentation.
