                                    in
                       Interactive Computer Graphics
                                    and
                           Virtual Environments

             College of Engineering, University of Washington

        Other Participating Colleges: College of Arts and Sciences,
           School of Public Health, and Community Medicine.

GRADUATE PROGRAM:  The University of Washington's College of Engineering
offers three degree options focusing on Interactive Graphics and Virtual
Environments, a Master of Science (M.S.) and a Master of Science in
Engineering (M.S.E.) and a Ph.D.  Both Master's degrees are administered
within the College of Engineering's Inter-Engineering Program.  The M.S.
degree is for applicants with a non-engineering background (eg., behavioral
science), the M.S.E. is designed for applicants with an engineering degree.
Students with behavioral science degrees must have a strong science and
mathematics preparation.  Finally, the Ph.D. is available through
Industrial Engineering with a focus on virtual environment and interface
design.

CORE PROGRAM FOR M.S. AND M.S.E.:  The following seven courses represent
the core courses for the Master's graduate program:
        Industrial Engineering, Advanced Interface Design.
        Technical Communication, Usability Analysis and Testing.
        Industrial Engineering, Introduction to Virtual Interface
          Technology.
        Psychology 523, Cognition, or Psychology 462, Information
          Processing or Vision.
        Industrial Engineering, Design of Experiments.
        A senior or graduate level course in Regression Analysis.
        Enrollment in 1 unit seminar series from the Department of
          Electrical Engineering (Imaging or Telerobotics) or the
          Department of Psychology (Cognitive or Vision).

CORE PROGRAM FOR Ph.D.:  Typically, students pursue the Ph.D. in
Interactive Computer Graphics and Virtual Environments through Industrial
Engineering.  In consultation with an advisor, students select courses in
virtual environment design, interface design, computer graphics, and
statistics to represent the core set of courses for the specialty.
