Entry requirements

Admission Requirements: Admission to the CSE program is based on academic record and letters of recommendation. GRE scores may also be considered for students in a degree program. Prerequisites for admittance into the CSE program in addition to a bachelor’s degree are: One year of general college physics or chemistry. One year of differential/integral calculus, and either a course in differential equations (e.g. MATH **316), a course in applied statistics (e.g. STAT 427), or a course in numerical methods (e.g. MATH **375). A course in computer programming or equivalent experience using a programming language generally used for high-performance and/or data-intensive computing such as C, C++, FORTRAN, Java, or Python. For the certificate earned alongside a degree, admission is to the participating home department. For post-degree CSE students, a graduate degree in a mathematical,...
