Admissions

This program is designed for either practicing or aspiring professionals who are ready to build a comprehensive set of computer science skills.

Whether you’ve acquired your existing computer science skills through formal study, self-directed learning, or professional experience, this program will help you deepen your understanding, hone your practical abilities, and demonstrate your proficiency by earning a prestigious master’s degree. 

To gain admission, you’ll complete two three-credit pathway courses on the Coursera platform. Once you’ve earned a GPA of 3.0 or higher in both those courses (and provided proof of your bachelor’s degree) you’ll be accepted into the degree program.

There are no prerequisites related to a specific educational or professional background. You only need to have a bachelor’s degree from an accredited institution in any field.

Pathway courses are a part of the degree program, so you are making progress while you gain acceptance to the degree.
