Degree Programs

    We welcome both local and international students to join our undergraduate program and graduate school to achieve the self-fulfillment of brilliancy. Our BS, MS, and Ph.D. degree programs facilitate the development of students’ academia and industrial careers.

BS
The Bachelor of Science Program in Computer Science and Engineering offers essential education of computing knowledge and skills. This program mainly qualifies students for advanced studies and provides training for a variety of careers in businesses, industries, and public positions. Duration of this program is normally 4 years.

MS
The Master Program in Computer Science and Engineering is an academic program allows participants to obtain a Master of Science degree in Computer Science and Engineering in 2 years. The purpose of this program is to provide advanced training in computer science and engineering for students to acquire dominant positions in industries and academia. Participants are required to take courses in three major areas --- Theory, Systems, and Applications. The student must finish a competent thesis under the supervision of one of the department faculty member.

Ph.D.
The Ph.D. Program in Computer science and Engineering allows participants to obtain a Ph.D. degree in Computer Science and Engineering in 3 to 7 years. This advanced graduate program is a research-oriented program. The requirement for accomplishing this program is a competent Ph.D. thesis.
