About the Program

A step up from the undergraduate degree program, students who enroll in the MS in Computer Science degree program can perform research work and learn more about the field. Courses and concentrations range from artificial intelligence to computer science theory. Our proximity to Washington D.C. puts us at an advantage for the latest careers.

Online MS in Computer Science

The MS in Computer Science program is now offered in a 100% online format. The online MS in Computer Science program helps students gain expert-level problem-solving abilities while building skills in advanced programming, model construction and analysis, and analysis of algorithms as they advance their knowledge in the top areas of computer science. 

Program Opportunities

Mason stands out from other local universities, by offering an online option for the master’s program. Graduate students tend to also be working professionals and thus we offer courses that take place in the late afternoon or evening. Students may receive financial aid from graduate assistantships if they are enrolled full-time.
