NOTE: For students with a 4-years BSCS degree, the duration of the MSCS is 2-years. It requires 33 credit hours to complete. Although the institutional administration emphasize and encourage students to undertake research, they can take two courses in lieu of research in specific domains. If a student opts for course work only, he/she is required to complete 11 courses of 3 credit hours each. Else, the student is required to complete 9 Courses (27 credit hours) and Two Independent Research Study (6 credit hours) OR One Thesis (6 credit hours). The maximum duration to complete this degree is 4 years.
