Master's Degrees

At the end of each semester the Master's candidates who are graduating make a presentation to the CIE community in a Tuesday Dialogue. This year's presentations were notable for their striking visual content, with one of them integrating video and audio, even doing the literature review as a short embedded video. Afterwards there were celebrations and pictures with the faculty advisers.
