Introduction
The master's degree program offers an integrated course of study covering the theory, implementation and design of information, computing, communication and embedded systems.
This program gives students the opportunity to focus on a specific area within computer science and engineering, perform preliminary research within that topic and write a thesis.
Research strengths
Our graduate students are given the opportunity to focus in a specific area by taking advanced courses and becoming significantly involved in many aspects of original research and advancing scientific knowledge.
Students can focus their research in one of eight broad areas:
- Computer Network
- Database Systems
- Semantic Web and Service Engineering
- Software Engineering
- Artificial Intelligence
- Multimedia Technologies
- Computer Graphics and Visualization
- Business Intelligence
Within these broad areas of focus, faculty in the department have expertise in artificial intelligence, computer vision, pattern recognition, robotics, evolutionary computing, digital interactive games, software engineering, computer graphics, human-computer interactions, distributed computing, virtual reality, embedded systems, computer networks, and network measurement and security.
Faculty research and laboratories have been well supported by various research and infrastructure grants.
