Master of Science in Computer Science (Thesis) (Co-operative Program Option)

Computer Science combines the intellectual challenge of a young discipline with the excitement of an innovative and rapidly expanding technology. Computer science has been an active area at Lakehead University for over 25 years. The department resides in the University's Advanced Technology and Academic Centre (ATAC), a striking building that houses many of the University?s computing activities. Faculty, staff, and students are equipped with state-of-the-art computing facilities including smart lecture rooms, labs, and a variety of computing technologies (e.g. Virtual Reality, Parallel Computing). The Master's program in computer science provides an opportunity to explore the breadth and depth of advanced knowledge in the discipline. Students benefit from a selection of advanced courses and a chance to pursue research that aligns with their interests and aspirations.

Master?s by Course (1 year), which involves courses aligned with the IT industry requirements Master's by Project (2 years), which involves courses aligned with the IT industry needs and also includes a limited research project Master's by Thesis (2 years), which requires fewer courses and involves a more substantial research project Project and Thesis based students can further their industrial experience through available Co-op placement opportunities.

A graduate student will normally be admitted to the co-operative program option after completion of two terms, for a starting date in May. Students are expected to obtain an aggregate of 80% or more and must have taken at least 4 half credit courses (excluding non-credit courses, project and thesis). Co-op employment for 8 months (two terms) must be successfully completed to satisfy the co-op requirement for the degree. Students interested in a co-op placement should inform the Department's Co-op Advisor at least four months in advance of the proposed date of the placement (e.g., by late December for placements beginning in May). The Department's decision as to the suitability of each candidate will be based primarily on academic performance. Successful candidates will work with the Student Success Centre and the university Co-op Coordinator in their search for suitable employment.
