Students
seeking admission to this program must meet all general
requirements of the College of Graduate studies. Additional
requirements are as follows:
1.
In most cases, a student must have a minimum combined score
of 1000 on the Verbal and Quantitative sections of the GRE
and a minimum grade point average of 3.0 on the last 60
hours of undergraduate course work.
2.
A ranking in the 34th percentile of the verbal portion of
the GRE; for applicants whose native language is not English,
a TOEFL score of at least 550 also is required;
3. Completion of a sufficient amount of prior work in the
field of computer science including courses such as
COSC 2371,
COSC 3306, ELEN
3331,
COSC 4310, COSC
4302 or COSC
3302 or equivalents; undergraduate and graduate
leveling sequences are available (COSC
5341 and
COSC 5342 have been designed for students who satisfy
conditions 1 and 2 but are deficient in computer science
course background);
4.
Students with minor deficiencies may be admitted to the
program if these deficiencies can be removed within approximately
one long semester. However, major deficiencies must be removed
before a student is admitted to the degree program; and
5.
At least 15 hours of mathematics including differential
and integral calculus, discrete mathematics and two other
courses selected from statistics, linear algebra, abstract
algebra, numerical analysis and differential equations.
Students
not satisfying both conditions 1 and 2 will not be admitted
to the computer science program nor will they be allowed
to enroll in graduate computer science courses. Those students
who satisfy both conditions 1 and 2 but who are deficient
in other areas may be provisionally admitted to the program
and may enroll in graduate level courses.
