Our graduate programs provide students with the opportunity to take courses, select advisory committee members, and pursue research in an area of interest to a faculty supervisor. The Master of Science program is designed for students who wish to further broaden or deepen their knowledge of computer science; both thesis and non-thesis options are offered. The Ph. D. program is appropriate for students with motivation for research and either a superior track record in coursework or substantial experience in industrial research and development.
