Overview

The master’s program offers students a high level of flexibility. Students may focus on one area of computer science, or take courses across the breadth of the field. The degree may be completed on a full-time or part-time basis.

Key facts

We provide a collegial, interactive environment in which faculty directly mentor students. All faculty and PhD students, regardless of their area, are familiar with each other’s work. This is possible only in a relatively small, close-knit department.

The Computer Science program of University of Rochester is based on coursework and optional research and is designed for students who do not intend to complete a PhD degree at University of Rochester. It is particularly appropriate for students who have an undergraduate degree in fields other than computer science, but seek a career in computer science.

Our philosophy is that computer science research is a community endeavor, crucially dependent on the vitality of the local community in which it takes place. We believe that graduate students are the heart of our research productivity, and we make them first-class department citizens. Graduate students serve on all department committees and, in particular, are crucial members of faculty and graduate student recruitment efforts.
