The Masters Program in Computer Science is designed to provide rigorous training in both theoretical and applied areas of Computer Science. It requires course work in mainstream areas of Computer Science along with a thesis. The thesis exposes students to both the research and design methodology. The combination of course work and the thesis prepares students to take up positions in the academia as well as industry, while also providing a sufficient base for transition to doctoral studies.
The broad based course work in several mainstream areas of Computer Science provides breadth of the discipline; the MS program caters for depth by offering four options for specialization, namely Software Systems & Engineering, Multimedia & Communications, Web and Information Systems, and Computational Business Intelligence.
