Key Summary
Computer technology has transformed how we live, socialize, do business and even take care of ourselves today. Thanks to recent innovations in mobile, Internet and web/software development technology, we can enjoy our life as we do today. These innovations are made possible by computer technology which is largely driven by the advances in the field of computer science consisting of many sub-specialty areas.
For an M.Sc. in Computer Science, the Faculty of ICT offers highly technical courses which are foundation to the field of computer science. We target hands-on students who would like to become experts in the fields of software development, data science, network administration, computer and security, and computer graphics. Due to the establishment of the M.Sc. in Cyber Security and Information Assurance and M.Sc. in Game Technology and Gamification programs, the M.Sc. in Computer Science program now focuses more on software development, software engineering, database management, artificial intelligence, and data science. The M.Sc. in Computer Science program is a two-year program. The candidate is required to have knowledge and skills in computer science or related areas to be admitted to the program.
