Computers are an integral part of society and control many of the systems and resources that are essential for daily life. As the range of computer applications continues to expand, so does the demand for computer scientists. It is an ever-changing discipline that studies the theory, design, and implementation of computer applications and systems. Imagine learning about how to use computing and information technology to solve problems in business, science, and society in the nation's capital, a city with over 1,700 high tech firms. If you are considering studies in Computer Science consider Carleton.

The School of Computer Science offers graduate degrees in Information and Systems Science (ISS), Master's in Computer Science (MCS), and Doctor in Philosophy (Ph.D) in Computer Science.

Graduate students in the Master of Computer Science (MCS) or Doctor of Philosophy in Computer Science (PhD) programs are able to register in courses offered by the School of Information Technology and Engineering (SITE) at the University of Ottawa and the School of Computer Science (SCS) at Carleton University under the auspices of the Ottawa-Carleton Institute for Computer Science (OCICS).
