The Department of Computer Science and Engineering offers rigorous doctoral and masters degree programs. These programs integrate theory and practice, while bringing recent research results into the classroom and preparing graduates for a lifetime of professional growth throughout their careers.
Masters programs are focused on courses designed for students interested in computing and technology industries. They combine a strong background in core techniques with hands-on project-oriented experiences found in many of our courses.
The Ph.D. program prepares students for research careers in computer science, integrating coursework with original research, as evidenced by a written thesis and a public oral defense of that thesis.
