The College of Science, Engineering and Technology is a dynamic school. It has been, and remains, a major force for change within the University as an innovator and initiator of most of the high demand and high technological programs on campus.
Master of Science in Computer Science
Rasha Morsi, Ph.D.
csgrad@nsu.edu (Traditional Program)
csgradonline@nsu.edu (Accelerated Online Program)
(757) 823-9448
The Master of Science degree in Computer Science requires 30 graduate credit hours of course work and a thesis (6 credits), or 33 graduate credit hours of course work and a project (3 credits). The program offers four choices of study: general study in computer science, emphasis in information assurance, emphasis in computational science and engineering, and emphasis in communication networks.
The Master of Science degree is also offered as an accelerated online program that can be completed in as few as 12 months at a reduced rate.
Master of Science in Cyberpsychology
Scott M. Debb, Ed.D.
Program Coordinator
757-823-8943
cyberpsychology@nsu.edu
The M.S. in CyberPsychology program is a two full calendar year program (fall/spring/summer) that utilizes synchronous and asynchronous online instruction to prepare students to be social science researchers with emphasis in cyberpsychology. Courses are delivered in 8 and 16 week course formats. The M.S. CyberPsychology program is an applied study of the reciprocal relationships between humans in the 21st century and the current and emerging (digital) technologies we increasingly rely upon. This program builds on a wide range of psychological theory which is combined with critical examination of emerging trends across all domains of human behavior and technology. Students are equipped with essential research skills sought across a wide range of employment settings and Doctoral training programs.
