MA/MS in Computer Science

The Masters Program in Computer Science at the University of Chicago pairs a demanding curriculum with hands-on programming and applied work. Students build a base in core computing topics, then choose electives in areas such as cloud computing, generative AI, user experience design and big data. The nine-course track suits people who want to finish quickly, since no internship is required and evening classes let students fit study around other commitments. Students may enroll full time or part time in Hyde Park. A twelve-course track extends the same core with a specialization of four electives and opportunities for internships and a collaborative practicum. Career pages on the site track graduate roles, industries and starting salaries. Prospective students can request more information, contact the team, or review program options and career services directly from the site, and current students have their own resource section.
