What will I learn?

The Master's Program in Computer Science is offered in coursework and thesis tracks. The coursework track requires both breadth and depth requirements. The breadth requirement ensures students obtain a solid foundation in core computer science areas. The depth requirement allows students to design a sequence of courses to target a particular area of interest. We also offer an online MS degree as a coursework track. The thesis track further allows students to conduct research in a chosen area of interest. The Master’s degree can also be pursued in a 4+1 format in conjunction with the Coordinate major in Computer Science. Students wishing to pursue a 4+1 MS are highly encouraged to consult with the graduate coordinator. We also recommend enrolling in the graduate sections of advanced undergraduate electives in order to make use of the SSE dual credit policy.
