The concentration in Computing and Business provides a blended approach providing students with a solid technical background in computer science as well as core topics in modern business practices.

This program is designed to provide the student with competency in the major areas of statistical and mathematical application, working knowledge of mathematical and/or statistical software, and sufficient theoretical background to serve as a foundation for continued professional development.

Computing and computer technology are part of just about everything that touches our lives - from the cars we drive to the products we consume, to the way we communicate with others. Understanding different computing dimensions is one of the necessary skillsets for an educated person in the 21st century.

This graduate program provides expertise in applied and basic computing through its course offerings in computer systems, theory, languages and algorithms. It is designed to prepare students for a career as a computing professional, although some students go on to pursue a PhD degree.

The Master of Science in Computer Science at UW-Whitewater is a 30-credit program that can be completed within 16 months in most cases.

The MS in Advanced Computing program preserves the core of Computer Science (CS) while possessing unique strength in emerging interdisciplinary areas in Cybersecurity, Artificial Intelligence, Data Science, and Cloud Computing. The program is delivered in both online and face-to-face formats. For online learning participates, students take ten courses and can complete the degree program in a 12-month period. Students can also choose to work on a project or conduct research and then write a thesis under the guidance of the CS faculty.

Why SciCAM? The Department of Applied Mathematics offers an M.S. program in scientific computing and applied mathematics (SciCAM). SciCAM students learn a combination of cutting-edge computational methods for modern high-performance computing architectures and applied mathematical modeling. The M.S. is ideally suited to meet the increasing need for graduates in the rapidly growing markets of computational mathematics and modeling, and high-performance computing. Such computationally knowledgeable and experienced modelers are highly sought after in industry and government agencies.

The Master of Science Computer Science (MSCS) program is designed to advance the professional careers of technologists in the field of computing. It presents a modern curriculum that challenges students to apply principles of design, critical and algorithmic thinking, innovation, management, and problem-solving to the field of computer science.

The MS in Computing and Business teaches concepts in computer science and business to function effectively in designing, building, enhancing, and maintaining software systems and applications in the context of business environments such as in the financial industry. Besides computing topics such as networking and security, databases, data mining, and data structures, students will learn fundamental business concepts such as accounting, finance, financial products, business operations, and marketing.
