[Vishal Kotkar]

Alcorn State University (Alcorn) is a historically black comprehensive land-grant institution located northwest of Lorman, Mississippi in rural Claiborne County not in Jefferson.

Master of Science Degree in Computer & Information Science

This major requires 33 credit hours of graduate courses in computer science.

This program is designed to meet the needs of two groups of students

Those who have completed an undergraduate degree in Computer Sciences, and those with degrees in related fields who want to develop their knowledge and skill in computer science.

Admission Requirements:

Students are required to take the following prerequisites:

Two calculus courses, a discrete mathematics course, one course involving the concepts of object-oriented programming (e.g., in Java, C++), and one course in data structures and algorithms

Students who have not completed the undergraduate prerequisites may be conditionally admitted. A student will be removed from conditional status after all prerequisites have been completed with a “B” average or better.

Graduation Requirements:

Master degree candidates must complete a minimum 33 credit hours including at least 15 credit hours from the required courses.

Master degree candidates must complete either the thesis (6 credit hours) or a research project (3 credit hours) or internship (3 credit hours) or a comprehensive exit exam.

With the recommendation of the advisor and permission of the department chair, a student may take a three credit hour course from a related field, which will be counted as an elective course.
