Fifteen (15) credits of core requirement courses.
Twelve (12) credits of a specialization track courses.
Three (3) credits of practicum.

Specialization Track

The specialization track is determined by the student’s interests and must be approved by the student’s advisor. The selected courses should form a coherent whole, giving the student a degree of expertise in a single area. Examples of specialization tracks may be found on the program website.

Practicum

The practicum (CISC 691 /CPEG 691 ) will be guided by the individual student’s interests. It must be arranged with, and approved by, a CIS or ECE faculty member. The student will contribute to a significant software engineering project either on campus or in association with an off-campus organization such as a private business or government agency.
