Beschreibung des Programms

Prepare for a Ph.D. program or to enter a research/development career in the computer science industry with a Master of Science in Computer Science. To complete the program, choose from a master’s thesis, master’s project, or coursework only.

Core courses are organized into three categories of computer science: programming, systems, and theory. The degree may be earned strictly through coursework, however, there are options to develop, complete, and defend a master’s thesis, or a master’s project.

Illinois Tech's Mies Campus is located just south of Chicago's downtown, a growing hub of the tech industry, home to a thriving hacking community, and a hive of startup activity.

Program Overview

The Master of Science in Computer Science is designed to prepare you for a Ph.D. program or to enter a research/development career in the computer science industry. Core courses are organized into three categories of computer science: programming, systems, and theory.

Which Program Should I Apply To?

  • Both programs prepare you for a career as a working professional in computer science.
  • The M.S. CS is slightly more theoretically oriented since it requires one more theory core course than the M.A.S. CS.
  • Specializations and computer science professional courses are only available through the M.A.S. CS program.
  • If you plan to continue studying for a Ph.D., you should consider writing a master's thesis, which is available only under the M.S. CS program.
  • If you're not sure which program you want, we suggest applying to the M.S. CS program. If you're accepted, it's easy to change to the M.A.S. CS program later; if you're rejected for the M.S. CS program, you'll automatically be considered for the M.A.S. CS program.
