Thesis-Based Master\u2019s: Completing the degree normally requires five one-term 500-level courses, registration and participation in the Graduate Seminar (CS 597), together with a Master\u2019s thesis (CS 599). Courses are chosen by students in consultation with their supervisor. All courses prescribed for a student\u2019s approved program of study are designated as primary. Courses additional to the student\u2019s approved program are designated as secondary. Failure to attain a minimum of 65% in any of the primary courses may result in the student being required to withdraw from the program.

Course-Based Master\u2019s: Completing the degree requires twelve one-term 500-level courses, together with a Master\u2019s project (CS 590). Courses are available during the regular semesters (Fall and Winter), and are chosen by students depending on their interest, their background, and on course availability. The Master\u2019s project is normally available only during the Spring/Summer semester. Failure to maintain a minimum of a 65% cumulative average may result in the student being required to withdraw from the program.
