This integrated program equips you with essential business acumen and technical expertise to excel in managerial IT positions, research roles, and development careers across startups, major corporations, consulting firms, government agencies, and nonprofit organizations.
M.S. in Computer Science

Pursuing this dual-degree option saves you nine credit hours (equivalent to three courses) compared to completing both degrees independently.
