The Master's Degrees.
A candidate who has received a baccalaureate degree from this university,
or who has fulfilled the conditions above specified under Entrance
Requirements, is entitled to a master's degree upon his successful completion
of four graduate courses, chosen in accordance with the restrictions
detailed below:
No C course which a candidate has offered as part of the work credited
for a baccalaureate degree (pp. 134, 135) may be counted for a master's
degree.
No C course may be counted toward a master's degree unless preceded
by B work in the same subject aggregating at least 6 session-hours;
or, in case only one 3 session-hour course is offered in that subject, by
one B course in that subject and a second B course in the same Group,
chosen with the approval of the professor in charge of the C course in
question.
A candidate must take at least two graduate courses during the last
year of his work for a master's degree, and no candidate may receive this
degree until at least one year after he has received his baccalaureate degree,
except by special consent of the Academic Faculty.
The degree of Master of Arts is conferred upon a Bachelor of Arts
who has successfully completed four graduate courses, chosen with the
approval of the Academic Faculty. These four courses must be in at
least three distinct subjects, and in three different Academic Schools, except
by special order of the Academic Faculty. Three of the subjects
must be cognate, which means that they must be selected from kindred
groups of subjects, such as, for example, languages and literature, or
mathematics and natural science, or history, economics, and government,
or philosophy, education, and biology.
The degree of Master of Science is conferred upon a holder of the
cultural degree of Bachelor of Science (page 135), who has successfully
completed four graduate courses chosen in accordance with the regulations
prescribed for the Master of Arts above.
The degree of Master of Science in a Special Subject, the name of
which is inscribed on the diploma, is conferred upon a holder of the vocational
degree of Bachelor of Science in a Special Subject (page 135),
who has successfully completed four graduate courses selected from
among those offered in his special subject, or from among other courses
which meet with the approval of the professors in charge of his special
subject.
