This is a five-year degree program which leads to both a Bachelor of Science
and a Master of Science degree at the end of the five years. Both the
BS degree requirements
and the
MS degree requirements
need to be fulfilled.
However, six credit hours of Computer Science courses at the 5000 level or
above may be counted towards both sets of degree requirements,
if they are chosen from the following list:
- CSCI 5229-3,
Computer Graphics
... if CSCI 4229 has not been taken
- CSCI 5273-3,
Network Systems
... if CSCI 4273 has not been taken
- CSCI 5312-3,
Medical Informatics
... if CSCI 4312 has not been taken
- CSCI 5314-3,
Algorithms for Molecular Biology
... if CSCI 4314 has not been taken
- CSCI 5317-3,
Genome Databases: Mining and Management
... if CSCI 4317 has not been taken
- CSCI 5322-3,
Things That Think
... if CSCI 4322 has not been taken
- CSCI 5332-3,
Game Programming
... if CSCI 4332 has not been taken
- CSCI 5342-3,
Groupware and Workflow Systems
... if CSCI 4342 has not been taken
- CSCI 5412-3,
Design, Creativity and New Media
... if CSCI 4412 has not been taken
- CSCI 5444-3,
Introduction to Theory of Computation
... if CSCI 3434 has not been taken
- CSCI 5446-3,
Chaotic Dynamics
... if CSCI 4446 has not been taken
- CSCI 5448-3,
Object-Oriented Analysis and Design
... if CSCI 4448 has not been taken
- CSCI 5454-3,
Design and Analysis of Algorithms
... if CSCI 3104 has not been taken
- CSCI 5606-3,
Principles of Numerical Computation
... if CSCI 3656 has not been taken
- CSCI 5753-3,
Computer Performance Modeling
... if CSCI 4753 has not been taken
- CSCI 5838-3,
User Interface Design
... if CSCI 4838 has not been taken
- CSCI 5809-3,
Computer Animation
... if CSCI 4809 has not been taken
In theory, therefore, the minimum number of credit hours required for the
BS/MS degree will be 152.
Students need to gain admission to this program
during Fall/Spring of their junior year.
Tuition
For resident students, the undergraduate tuition rate will be used
throughout the BS/MS program, until and including the semester when
the student completes the requirements for the BS/MS.
For non-resident students, for the graduate portion of the BS/MS program,
the tuition rate will be: the minimum of the nonresident graduate
tuition rate minus (the resident graduate tuition rate minus
the resident undergraduate tuition rate) and the nonresident undergraduate
tuition rate, with all of the above rates being the ones for the number of
credits for which that student is enrolled. The "graduate portion of the
BS/MS program" will be defined as those semesters after the student has 128
credit hours that are applicable to the BS/MS degree, until and including
the semester when the student completes the requirements for the BS/MS.
Admission
Applicants must have completed two 3000-level Computer Science courses
on the Boulder campus.
To apply for the program, students must submit the following:
Application for Admission to the Concurrent Bachelor's/Master's Degree Program
Computer Science BS/MS Application for Admission
Any supporting documentation that must be sent by regular mail should be addressed to
Computer Science Graduate Program
University of Colorado at Boulder
430 UCB
Boulder, CO 80309-0430
Along with the applications, students must also submit:
two letters of recommendation from CU Boulder Computer
Science faculty members, if you have a GPA of 3.50 and
three letters of recommendation from CU Boulder Computer
Science faculty members, if you have a GPA of more than 3.00 but less than
3.50
a short write up on why you are interested in pursuing the BS/MS degree
