CS & ECE Doctoral Qualifying Exams (DQE) Resources:
Until this year, the past DQE question papers were not made available to the students. We have worked with the department and have obtained the DQE papers from the last year (2007). The department has changed the policy now and hopefully, the DQE question papers will henceforth be made available for the benefit of the students.
If you have any useful qualifiers materials, send it to us and we will make them available here.
Past DQE Question Papers (@ UC) (as pdf):
- 2007 DQE Questions:

This is the set of questions (jotted down from memory) from the Algorithms, Operating Systems & Networks sections of the DQE exam of June 2005.

- Masters Examination Questions:
[Algorithms - 13 Papers], [Automata - 4 Papers], [Database - 15 Papers],
[Operating Systems - 9 Papers], [Programming Languages - 13 Papers]
Questions from old DQE & Masters Examination papers. The MS exam used to be the non-thesis option for Master's students in the ECECS Dept years ago. These question papers are good exercises for DQE preparation as well for the course examinations.
