Program overview

The project route provides an opportunity for an MSc CIS student to focus on an investigation that is of importance and of interest to that individual and that culminates in an original contribution to the discipline of computing and information systems. The project route in a master's program in science and technology is a structured academic pathway that requires students to complete a significant, real-world project. This project often involves collaboration with industry partners or research institutions. Prospective applicants who want to select the project route are strongly encouraged to review the profiles of our faculty members below and contact potential supervisors before applying.
