Computer Science, PhD

The department offers a PhD in computer science that prepares students for creative research, teaching, and service. There are two programs leading to the PhD degree, one designed for the applicant entering with bachelor's degrees, and the other for those who already have master's degrees. Students may begin their program either in the fall or spring semesters. Applicants with bachelor's degrees must first satisfy the admission and degree requirements of the master's degree in computer science.
