Overview

Master of Science (M.Sc.) in Computer Science

McGill University offers two M.Sc. programs - the Thesis and Non-Thesis. 

The Non-Thesis program will be sometimes referred to as the Project option since it substitutes a project (and additional courses) for a thesis. 

Both programs are designed to take between 1.5 and 2 years. The maximum allowable is 3 years. 

Students begin in the Thesis program, and may switch to the Project option any time after their second semester.

The non-thesis program is designed for students who want to obtain broad knowledge of advanced topics in computer science but without the requirement of a thesis. 

It offers an excellent preparation for the job market, but is not recommended for students interested in eventually pursuing a Ph.D.
