Every candidate for the master of science in computer science systems engineering degree must complete 45 quarter hours of credit, at least 36 of which must be completed at the University of Denver. To satisfy graduation requirements, candidates must maintain a course GPA of 3.0/4.0. In addition, a grade of C or better must be obtained in each course for that course to count toward the 45 QH requirement. Six courses at the 4000 level are required.
The degree is designed for the working professional. The basic structure is as follows:
Required Courses 11 QH
Application Area Core (approval required) 16 QH
The Preapproved Application Core currently includes:
Performance Modeling (COMP 3702) 4 QH
Capstone (Independent Study) 2 QH
Computer Science Electives 12 QH
TOTAL 45 QH
The prerequisites for this degree are the same as those for the master of science in computer science.
