Graduate Program Information

The Master of Computer and Information Science (MS-CIS) Program offers three concentrations: Computer Science, Information Systems, and Software Engineering. Entry into the graduate program requires an undergraduate background in the selected concentration. Grades of "B" or above are expected in any undergraduate preparatory course work taken at 香港六合彩开奖结果2023. The MS-CIS program is designed to add breadth and depth to a standard bachelor's degree program in the chosen area. Students have the option to pursue a thesis or a non-thesis track within each concentration, demonstrating their comprehensive understanding of the discipline through a thesis submission or additional detailed courseworkk. The thesis track requires 24 credit hours of coursework plus a minimum of 6 thesis credit hours, totaling at least 30 credit hours while the non-thesis track requires 36 credit hours of coursework.

MS-CIS Computer Science Concentration

In the Computer Science concentration, breadth must be demonstrated in the areas of computer networks; operating systems; algorithms; and databases. Depth must be accomplished in the areas of graphics/interfaces; networks; advanced systems; and data/language paradigms.
