Ringkasan program

The purpose of the Joint International Master's in Computer Science (JIM-CS) is to provide a quality, advanced education in computer science in an international setting. The program objectives is graduates will demonstrate advanced knowledge and skills in computer science; apply fundamental theory and practical methods to construct software systems in an international setting; interact affectively within international and diverse teams; understand how international differences and regional influences affect work done in computer science; and engage in and recognize the importance of life-long learning. The strength of this program is the international component. Computing today is a global issue, driving industry to seek professionals who are experienced in internationally distributed development and operation of software systems. To gain international experience, students are required to spend at least one semester abroad at one of the partner institutions. This gives students opportunities to converse and work with others from different cultures. The requirements for the curriculum fit into five categories: foundations, electives, project work, culture and language, and writing. The writing requirement consists of either a thesis or a seminar paper; this choice affects the number of credits to be taken in the other categories. The total number of required credits for both options is 30. In addition, students must satisfy requirements for coursework involving significant global content and graduate school requirements for the number of credits at the 7000 level and above. Other than the courses covering language, all courses are taught in English. There is no requirement that students know another language to enter the program.

Persyaratan masuk bagi mahasiswa internasional

Students must have a Bachelor's degree, generally with a major in computer science or related field (such as software engineering, informatics, computer information systems, etc.). In particular, it is assumed that students would have had a number of courses in the discipline including introductory programming, data structures, and at least four of the following: computer architecture, database design, discrete mathematics, programming languages, operating systems, networking, or software engineering. Each institution has further requirements. For the requirements (and how to apply) at UWP, see here. Note that the minimum TOEFL score for the computer-based version of the exam is 173 and the minimum score for the internet-based exam is 61.
