B.S. / M.S. in Computer Science

University of California - Santa Barbara

For students in the College of Engineering BS in Computer Science degree program, completing a minor or double major offers students a cohesive supplement to their original major, reflecting well-rounded interests and courses of study. Students admitted to the BS in Computer Science may petition to add a double major from either Letters and Science or the College of Creative Studies. Students may NOT double major in two College of Engineering majors. Students that entered UCSB as freshmen must complete their degrees within a total of 15 regular quarters. Students admitted to the BS in Computer Science as junior transfer students must complete their CS degree and the second major within a total of 9 regular quarters. No exception will be made to this rule.

A combined BS/MS Program in Computer Science provides an opportunity for outstanding Computer Science, Computer Engineering (CE), or CCS Computing undergraduate majors to earn both degrees in as little as five years. Interested students should make their interest known to the department early in their 3rd year (typically their junior year) and plan to apply in the Spring quarter of that year.
