PhD in Computer Science Program Requirements
1. Applicants are required to have an undergraduate degree.
2. The GPA is not the only criterion. Grades in computer science and related disciplines, such as math, count more than grades in other areas. Also, we take into account the fact that at some very competitive schools it’s difficult to achieve a high GPA.
PhD Funding Coverage
Incoming doctoral students receive five or six years of guaranteed financial support, including summers, a stipend, tuition remission, a health-services fee, and health and dental insurance. Financial support for graduate students applies to both domestic and foreign students admitted to our doctoral programs (funding for transfer students may vary).

We expect strong results from our applicants in the following:
- Online application
- Record of grades or other academic performance
