MSc computer science at McGill University allows students to complete this course in 1.5 years.
Students must have to complete 45 credits successfully.
This program is offered in coursework and research-based.
They offer two M.Sc. programs - the Thesis and Non-Thesis.
The Non-Thesis program will be sometimes referred to as the Project option since it substitutes a project (and additional courses) for a thesis.
Both programs are designed to take between 1.5 and 2 years. The maximum allowable is 3 years.
Students begin in the Thesis program, and may switch to the Project option any time after their second semester.
Students intending to pursue a Ph.D. after the M.Sc. should follow the Thesis program rather than the Non-Thesis program.
Here is a brief summary of the requirements of the program require:
- three full-time terms of residence
- two seminar courses COMP 602 and 603
- a total of at least 45 credits
