College of Computing, Engineering and Construction Graduate Degrees

Links to Programs of Study:

Summary Program Descriptions:

The College of Computing, Engineering and Construction offers graduate degrees in the fields of Computer Science, Cybersecurity, Data Science, Information Systems, Civil Engineering, Electrical Engineering, and Mechanical Engineering. The College partners with the Coggin College of Business to support an M.B.A. concentration in Construction Management.

The College’s M.S. programs are designed to be the next academic step for graduates of undergraduate computing and engineering programs accredited by ABET or construction management degree programs accredited by ACCE. Students will be engaged in a rigorous academic program and will work with exceptional faculty members on research projects designed to respond to current challenges in the respective disciplines. Upon completion of CCEC masters' degrees, graduates are prepared to continue their graduate education at the doctoral level or to obtain advanced positions in industry.

Computer Science Program (MS)

The Computer Science Program for the M.S. in Computer and Information Sciences is built on a computing foundation (core) to provide research-oriented advanced studies in computing (breadth) with a focus (depth) on computer science. To enroll in the program, students have to have completed a bachelor's degree that included courses in procedural and object-oriented programming, data structures, applied discrete mathematics, databases, and computer networks. The core courses include research methods, information assurance, and a practicum experience. The breadth includes courses such as cloud computing, machine learning, and advanced computer networks. The computer science depth includes courses such as design & analysis of algorithms, advanced artificial intelligence, and parallel computing. Students can choose between a Thesis option and a Non-Thesis option. Both options entail working under the direct supervision of a computing graduate faculty to produce research outcomes that demonstrate mastery of computer science.

Computing (Ph.D)

The 香港六合彩开奖结果2023 Computing PhD program provides students with advanced, research-based, studies in the field of Computing to prepare them for research and development positions in the private and public sectors as well as academic positions in universities and colleges. Students can choose from two concentrations: (1) Cybersecurity or (2) Intelligent Systems.

Cybersecurity Concentration

The Cybersecurity concentration focuses on studying concepts, theories, and security underpinning of computing and communication systems with the aim of developing innovative solutions for improving the security of computing environments and contributing to the cybersecurity literature.

Intelligent Systems Concentration

The Intelligent Systems concentration focuses on studying theories, concepts, and systems that are inspired by the intelligent behaviors of humans, species and biological systems. Given the research focus of the degree, the program encourages multidisciplinary research approaches and prioritizes research problems with direct economic and community impacts. The Intelligent Systems concentration students will tackle research problems whose solutions does not exist, or can be improved in measurable ways, and contributes to the intelligent systems literature.

Construction Management Program (MS)

The program of study consists of 30 credits. This program is intended to build upon the BS Construction Management, Engineering, or Business degree and prepare recipients for effective roles in the construction industry. All programs of study must be approved by the program graduate director before the end of the second semester of graduate study. Programs of study may be modified with the approval of the program director. Three program of study options are available: course work option, research-based thesis option, or executive project-based thesis option.


Accelerated Mechanical Engineering Program (BS / MS)

Admission to the accelerated program allows student to register for graduate level courses while an undergraduate student, but does not grant automatic admission into the graduate program. The graduate courses taken as part of the program can count towards both the undergraduate and graduate degrees according to the below rules.

A student interested in the accelerated program shall submit an application for the accelerated program to the School of Engineering prior to the registration period of the term in which the student wishes to register for a graduate level course.

It is highly recommended that students interested in the accelerated program meet with an advisor to learn how the program may affect financial aid and tuition rates.

 

Accelerated program admission requirements

A minimum program GPA of 3.2 at time of application is required for admission into program

A signature from potential faculty thesis advisor is required for admission into program

All course pre‐requisites for each course must be met prior to registering for the course(s), with the exception of holding graduate standing

Students are not required to take the GRE for admission into the accelerated program.

Additional accelerated program details

Up to 9 credit hours of graduate level course work may be used towards technical electives at the undergraduate level.

A grade of C or higher must be earned in the graduate level course(s) to satisfy technical elective requirements for undergraduate students.

Up to 9 credit hours of graduate level course work completed while in undergraduate status at 香港六合彩开奖结果2023 may be used towards the MSME degree.

A grade of B or higher in the course(s) must be earned if the course(s) is to count towards the graduate program of study.

Grades earned in courses while in undergraduate status do not count towards graduate level GPA.

Admission into the Mechanical Engineering accelerated BSMS program does NOT automatically grant admission into the Mechanical Engineering Master of Science program at 香港六合彩开奖结果2023.
