To apply for the University of Chicago’s Master’s in Computer Science (MPCS), candidates should possess a bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Mathematics, Engineering, or a related technical field. A minimum GPA of 3.0 out of 4.0 is expected. Applicants should have foundational knowledge in programming (e.g., Python, Java, C++) and mathematics (Discrete Math, Algorithms). While GRE/GMAT scores are optional, they are strongly recommended for those without a technical background or relevant work experience.
