GRADUATE PROGRAMS

Master of Science in Computer Engineering ( MSCE )
The MSCE program is designed to provide computer engineers and computer scientists with advanced level skills in all areas of computer engineering and offers several areas of specialization including: computer design, software engineering, microcomputers and embedded systems, computer vision and robotics, computer networks, and multimedia.
Undergraduate Preparation
Students who do not have a Bachelor's degree in Computer Engineering are required to enroll the following courses to demonstrate their competency:
Mathematics:
Math 200 Calculus I 4 Credit Hours
Math 206 Discrete Mathematics 4 Credit Hours
Math 210 Probability & Statistics 4 Credit Hours
Math 214 Differential Equations 4 Credit Hours
Math 202 Calculus II 4 Credit Hours
Computer Science:

CS 206 Introduction to Unix or CS 208 Introduction to Windows & Windows NT 4 Credit Hours
CS 300 Data Structures 4 Credit Hours
CE 352 Introduction to Logic Design 4 Credit Hours
CS 400M Operating Systems 3 Credit Hours
CS 426M Computer Networks I 3 Credit Hours
CE 454M Computer Architecture I 3 Credit Hours
Graduate Level Curriculum
All MSCE students must complete coursework in the following areas with a minimum of 36 credit hours in total for MSCE degree:
Computer Engineering Core Courses ( 18 Credit Hours )
CS 400M Operating System 3 Credit Hours
CS 426M Computer Networks I 3 Credit Hours
CE 454M Computer Architecture I 3 Credit Hours
CS 526 Computer Networks II 3 Credit Hours
CE 551 IC Layout 3 Credit Hours
CE 554 Computer Architecture II 3 Credit Hours
Electives ( minimum of 18 Credit Hours )
Students in the MSCE program may take any 400 level or above of Computer Engineering or Computer Science undergraduate courses as an electives. However, no more than four 400 level undergraduate courses are allowed to count toward the requirement of graduation. Graduate Students, who select any 400M level courses, are given 3 credits after they complete the courses and the tuition rate are charged as 3 credit hours as well.

Students in the MSCE program may select at least one of the following areas as a concentration of their study:
  • Concentration Area A (Computer Networks & Telecommunications)
  • Concentration Area B (Database and Software Engineering).
The concentration areas will be addressed later. To qualify as a concentration area on a transcript, a student has to select at least three courses from that concentration area.
