MS Computer Science
Students can pursue either a thesis or a non-thesis Master's. The non-thesis option is designed for students to develop more sophisticated programming, theoretical, and applied skills for working in industry.
The thesis-based master's degree is designed for students considering research-based careers after their masters, as well as students who want to try out research while considering whether they may continue in a doctoral program. Interested students should talk to relevant faculty about this option before entering into their last year, as they will need to identify a faculty advisor for the thesis.
Students who successfully complete an MS degree may command a higher salary and positions with more authority and autonomy in industry.
