Applicants should possess a bachelor's degree in a computing-related field such as Computer Science, Computer Engineering, Information Sciences, or Information Technology. Those with degrees in other STEM disciplines or relevant professional experience may first pursue a graduate certificate to qualify for the M.S. program. A minimum GPA of 3.0 out of 4.0 is typically expected. Proficiency in object-oriented programming and foundational knowledge in areas like discrete mathematics, data structures, operating systems, and networking is essential. While GRE scores are required for international applicants, waivers may be available for those holding degrees from accredited U.S. institutions.
