A student may choose either a thesis or non-thesis degree program. The thesis option is suggested for students who have a strong research interest or those who wish to pursue a Ph.D. degree. Interdisciplinary programs of study that involve computer science and another discipline are encouraged; however, a core of computer science courses is required. Courses not labeled CMSC must show relevance to the student’s program of study and must be submitted for approval by the Computer Science Graduate Program Committee through the students adviser. At most, six non-CMSC credits may be applied toward the degree.
