MA/MS in Computer Science

The Computer Science course in the Graduate School of Information Science and Arts, within the Comprehensive Information Studies programme, is built on computer science and covers software science, hardware design, network engineering and media technology. Faculty research ranges from classical algorithms and information theory to virtual reality, robotics and the embedded systems that underpin ubiquitous computing. Embedded system technology, used in phones, cars, appliances, robots and space equipment, is one of the main research themes. Students work with real-time operating system development environments and modelling and code generation tools that are also used in corporate laboratories, which develops practical ability. The course site includes introductions to the course, to faculty and laboratories, and encouragement to continue to graduate study.
