Program details

Overview

The Computer Science (MSc) is offered by Brock University's Faculty of Mathematics and Science and leads to a Master of Science degree. The research-based program combines a year of coursework with a Major Research Project or thesis, covering areas such as computational logic and algebra, data mining, evolutionary computation, artificial intelligence, algorithms, parallelism, and combinatorics. Students may specialize in a general Computer Science stream or, through the thesis route only, in Artificial Intelligence. The program admits students each September and can be completed via a Major Research Project route (four terms, sixteen months) or a Thesis route (six terms, two years). Admission requires a four-year bachelor's degree, or equivalent, in Computer Science or a related field, with a minimum average of 75% over the last two years of study, and completed coursework in core computer science topics; applicants lacking this background may need additional preparatory courses. Applicants submit an online application, transcripts, three references, a statement of research interest, and a curriculum vitae. Graduates are prepared for doctoral study or research and development roles in computing.
