Program Overview


The Lee Gildart and Oswald Haase School of Computer Sciences and Engineering offers a combined BS in Information Technology and MS in Applied Computer Science program. This five-year program allows students to save time and money by completing three graduate courses that count towards both degrees. Students can specialize in advanced computer programming or database administration and complete an integrated undergraduate business minor.

Program Outline

Degree Overview:

The Lee Gildart and Oswald Haase School of Computer Sciences and Engineering (GHSCSE) offers a five-year combined-degree program at the Vancouver Campus, Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada. It allows qualified students to obtain a Bachelor of Science (BS) in information technology and a Master of Science (MS) in applied computer science with a combined course load that is 9 credits less than that of the separate degrees, enabling students to save time and money. In particular, three graduate courses: CSCI6623 Database Systems (3 credits), CSCI6638 Operating Systems (3 credits) and CSCI6844 Programming for the Internet (3 credits) or CSCI7783 Information Security (but not both) when successfully completed under the combined-degree program, can be credited toward both the BS and MS degrees. The program features an integrated undergraduate business minor and allows a graduate specialization in either advanced computer programming or database administration.
