Computer Sciences - Colorado School of Mines

Computer Sciences from Colorado School of Mines is a Campus Master Mathematics and Computer Science degree that prepares you for a Science career. With guidance from our internationally known faculty, students in the Mathematical and Computer Sciences graduate program at Mines solve real problems from industry and government by applying theoretical tools from mathematical and computer science disciplines. Our focus on applied problems gives students the hands-on experience we believe is essential for a successful career in these fields. Research The department offers graduate program in computer sciences concentration. Members of the department are actively involved in the Center for Wave Phenomena (CWP) and with the Center for Automation, Robotics and Distributed Intelligence (CARDI). These and other interdisciplinary activities give students many opportunities to participate in engineering and applied science projects on campus. Research is focused in the following areas: Sensor Networks Simulation Computer Vision and Image Processing Ad Hoc Networks Data Mining Applied Algorithms and Data Structures VLSI Design Automation Parallel Computing Computer Graphics Scientific Visualization Computer Aided Geometric Design Applications of Machine Learning Cognitive Modeling Master of Science The thesis option of this program requires 24 semester hours of acceptable coursework, including the required core curriculum, along with 12 research credit hours. Students in this option must complete and defend a thesis. The non-thesis option requires 36 hours of coursework (at least 27 of those credits taken at Mines). Students choosing this option have a strong background in both mathematics and computer sciences , and are preparing for advancement in a career that demands computer science training with mathematical fluency. The required core curriculum for both the non-thesis and thesis options: MACS 406 - Design and Analysis of Algorithms MACS 442 - Operating Systems MACS 564 - Advanced Computer Architecture Two of the following: MACS 542 - Simulation MACS 563 - Parallel Computing for Scientists and Engineers MACS 565 - Distributed Computing MACS 568 - Data Mining MACS 572 - Networks II MACS 575 - Machine Learning View more details on Colorado School of Mines .
