Computer Science is a direct-entry four-year program where students learn programming, software design, systems and theoretical foundations.
In five practice and experience courses, the emphasis at McMaster is on lab-based exploration and discovery, including expanded coverage of practical topics such as profiling and tuning, and foundational topics such as operating systems and compilers.
With the totally redesigned first-year curriculum, featuring five computer science, three math, and two electives courses, you’ll start gaining specialized knowledge right away and are more employable in co-op positions after first year.
By covering foundational topics earlier on, you’ll have space to take specialized elective courses in or outside of your field in upper years.
Your professional career starts in your first year with an introductory non-credit co-op course.
Beginning as early as the summer after your first year, you can begin completing four-month co-op positions. After your third year, you’ll have the option to complete longer, more immersive eight-, 12- or 16-month positions.
Twelve months of co-op is needed to graduate with the designation on your degree, but you can gain up to 28 months of work experience before graduating.
