Program Description

The Master of Science in computer science program in the School of Engineering includes applied and theoretical aspects of advanced computing topics. Courses within the Department of Computer Science include advanced operating systems, computer architecture, computer networks, bioinformatics, artificial intelligence, database systems and information assurance. Students who choose to complete a thesis directly engage with faculty to develop a deep understanding of the research topic. Graduates with a degree in computer science are prepared for positions such as software developer, consultant, systems programmer, project leader, and application software specialist. Graduates also pursue careers as research scientists, technology infrastructure specialists or technology consultants. The U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics predicts continued high demand and high salaries well into the next decade for computer scientists and software engineers. Students who choose to complete the thesis program during their course of study will be well-prepared to enter a PhD program. 

Admission Requirements

1. A bachelor’s degree from an accredited college or university. An undergraduate major in science, engineering, mathematics, or computing is desirable, but individuals with other backgrounds who are interested in the program are invited to discuss their career objectives with the program director.
2. An undergraduate GPA of 2.75 or above on a 4.0 scale.
3. Graduate Record Examination (GRE) general test scores taken within five years from the term for which admission is sought. An applicant should have a minimum of 150 in the Quantitative section. Under some circumstances, this requirement may be waived in lieu of extensive work experience in the computer science field. To apply for a GRE waiver, an applicant should submit letters of recommendation and evidence of work experience in the field to the Graduate Program Director. Completion of prerequisite and required courses with grades of B or better within two years prior to the term for which admission is sought may also be considered in place of the GRE scores as supporting eligibility to enter the program.
