The graduate program in computer science aims to support students' ongoing professional and academic growth. The Master of Science curriculum is structured to broaden students' expertise while focusing on a specific specialization area. The M.S. in Computer Science equips graduates with cutting-edge theoretical knowledge and practical abilities for entering the rapidly expanding IT field or pursuing doctoral studies. This degree program ensures successful candidates will achieve: Proficiency in core algorithmic principles, programming paradigms, data organization methods, and essential mathematical frameworks.
Specialized expertise in their chosen concentration (such as artificial intelligence, data science, network systems, cybersecurity, computational biology, or software development).
The capability to implement this understanding across disciplines to address practical challenges including visual data analysis, textual data extraction, voice pattern identification, medical data systems, biological data processing, and social media analytics.

Qualification Requirements
An undergraduate degree, preferably in an area related to computer science, computer engineering, or software engineering.
An overall GPA of 3.0 or higher in undergraduate coursework.
A 3.2 grade point average (on a 4.0 scale) on the last two years of undergraduate coursework. In particular, performance on Computer Science/Computer Engineering/Software Engineering related courses are emphasized.
Relevance of the student’s degree (background) to the CSE curriculum.
Rigor of the student’s Bachelor’s degree. A three-year degree is not considered rigorous. Note: International applicants with a “3+2” Master’s degree will be evaluated as equivalent to a 4-year Bachelor’s degree.
Reputation of the University/College from which the student has received his/her previous degrees.
A sum of verbal plus quantitative scores of at least 305 on the GRE. Additionally:
GRE quantitative score of at least 160
GRE verbal score of at least 145
The department does not require the advanced computer science test. A passing score on the Engineering in-Training (EIT) exam is also given consideration for admission decisions.
Students may be accepted with a GRE score of 300, but may be required to complete additional coursework for their MS degree (see degree requirements found later in this document). In this case:
GRE quantitative score of at least 155
GRE verbal score of at least 145
Students may also be accepted with up to three deficiency courses, but may be required to do additional coursework for their MS degree (see degree requirements found later in this document).
International Applicants will need to take the Test of English as a Foreign Language (TOEFL) and score at least 83 with no area score of less than 20, or take the International English Language Testing System (IELTS) and score at least 6.5 in all areas.
