Master of Science in Software Engineering(MSSE)

  • Print

The Master of Science in Software Engineering (MSSE) program is designed to provide the student, through concentration courses, with solid, specialized skills needed to produce high-quality software. In addition, it gives the student sufficient breadth, through selected advanced elective courses, to quickly learn new technological developments. This 27 SCH program is designed to be completed in one calendar year. The requirements of the MSSE program consist of eight courses and a one semester MS project (3SCH). The eight courses are divided into 4 concentration courses and 4 elective courses. Students can register for the MS Project or MS Thesis only after finishing at least two courses in their concentration.

The pre-requisites required for the MSSE are the equivalent of CSC 3324 and CSC 3325 (Software Engineering I and II) OR CSC 5302 (Graduate Software Engineering).
