  8. Some recommendations • Consult with OGS (Steve Cassedy and Mary Allen). • Secure letters of support from industry or leaders in the field of the proposed MAS. • Remember that your readers are not experts in the proposed field. • Remember that this is a professional degree, not an academic degree.
