Master of Computer Science
This is a course-based master’s program designed for Bachelor degree graduates in computer science, information technology (IT) and related areas.
Its aim is to prepare students to develop expertise with sufficient breadth and depth in the areas of software engineering, cybersecurity, software systems, data analytics, artificial intelligence and IT. This program is based on current provincial and regional organizations’ and institutions’ IT and computer science needs and requirements, including requirements for the expertise of highly qualified computer scientists.
Our master’s program will cover areas that require highly-skilled graduates (e.g., applied artificial intelligence, cybersecurity) and individuals with skills in those areas are currently in high demand. In addition, those areas are critical for our diversified economy and support organizations and companies that constantly require higher-level software development (e.g. software development project management) and data analytics.
