The Master's Program in Computer Science is offered in coursework and thesis tracks. We also offer the Online Master’s in Computer Science as a coursework track. The coursework option requires both breadth and depth requirements. The breadth requirement ensures students obtain a solid foundation in core computer science areas, while the depth requirement allows students to design a sequence of courses to target a particular area of interest. 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.

The objective of the PhD program is to train students in a chosen area of depth so that they can ultimately conduct original research. The program requires both breadth and depth in coursework. The breadth requirement ensures students obtain a solid foundation in core computer science areas, while the depth requirement allows students to gain an in-depth and up-to-date understanding of a particular area of concentration.
