American equivalent of the Polish Masters degree. In the US graduates of this program find employment within 6 weeks!
This program is based on the Master of Science in Computer Science program offered at DePaul University in Chicago, USA, and it satisfies all of its program and formal requirements.
The program consists of 13 courses scheduled for the period of two years (6 trimesters, 2- 3 courses per trimester). Each course meets once a week for four class hours. The trimester lasts 10 weeks.
Courses are delivered in English by lecturers from WSB-NLU and DePaul University. All lectures are recorded (visual and sound tracks, including video-presentations and information presented on the board) in order to make them available online to participants in the Internet through the COL - Course OnLine system. Students may also use the recordings of the lectures conducted in Chicago.
