The Master of Science (M.S.) in Computer Science is a graduate degree that typically takes 2-3 years to complete and is designed to provide advanced knowledge and skills in computer science and its applications. The program curriculum typically includes coursework, research, and a thesis or project, and may specialize in areas such as artificial intelligence, data science, cybersecurity, or human-computer interaction. An M.S. in Computer Science can lead to careers in software engineering, data analysis, research and development, and more, and can also be a stepping stone to pursuing a Ph.D. in Computer Science.
