The M.S. in Computer Science provides foundations of Computer Science, while acknowledging that Computer Science is key to algorithms in the sciences. Other programs in the Computer Science Department with different foci are M.S. in Information Technology and the M.S. in Software Engineering.
Overall, to achieve depth and breadth, Computer Science students must complete the following:
Three (3) required courses. Three (3) restricted electives. Four (4) courses or 12 credits that are general electives.
Major Requirements (9 credits)
The following three courses are required by the program:
- COMP 417: Social, Legal, and Ethical Issues in Computing
- COMP 413: Intermediate Object-Oriented Development
- COMP 460: Algorithms and Complexity (note important prereq COMP 363: Design and Analysis of Computer Algorithms)
The Graduate Program Director may approve the replacement of COMP 413: Intermediate Object-Oriented Development by an additional course on the Restricted Electives list in cases where the student’s primary program focus is not on software development.
Restricted Electives (9 credits)
MS-CS students must also take three courses from the following list:
- COMP 410: Operating Systems
- COMP 433: Web Services Programming
- COMP 436: Markup Languages
- COMP 439: Distributed Systems
- COMP 442: Server-Side Software Development
- COMP 443: Computer Networks
- COMP 453: Database Programming
- COMP 464: High-Performance Computing
- COMP 471: Programming Languages
- COMP 473: Object-Oriented Programming
- COMP 474: Software Engineering
Note that several of these courses require COMP 413: Intermediate Object-Oriented Development as prerequisite.
General Electives (12 Credits)
The elective course options are common for all programs, differing only in the total number of credits required.
Electives can be any COMP 400 level class.
Students may take up to a maximum of 6 credit hours of COMP 490: Independent Project and/or COMP 499: Internship.
There are numerous options for independent study, including a programming project, research, or a service-oriented project.
