M.S. in Computer Science and Engineering (Part-time)

The part-time M.S. in Computer Science and Engineering prepares working students for advanced careers in academia and industry. The curriculum explores emerging research areas through hands-on projects, work with industry experts and practical challenges, and it ends in a thesis. Faculty are described as committed to a stimulating environment that encourages creativity and critical thinking. The combination of theory and practice is meant to give the breadth and depth needed for work in universities, industry or research laboratories. Applicants should already be comfortable with programming and the study of data structures when they apply. Students from backgrounds other than computer science may need bridge courses. Selection involves a written test and an interview, and the page lists the syllabus for the written exam. The page gives important dates, minimum eligibility, the selection process and the syllabus for the written exam, and links to the department page for faculty and research interests.
