How long does it take to get a PhD after masters in computer science?

The degree typically takes 4-5 years to complete, and involves independent study and research in a focused area of interest. Doctorate programs include coursework and research that culminate in a final dissertation.

Can I get PhD in 3 years?

Yes, it’s possible only if you are regular with your research and completing the minimum requirements (articles and conference) required in your university within 3 years. You just have to be regular and active with the research work, otherwise it will get extended from three years to four years.

How do I get into computer science as a non-major?

If you are at all interested in Computer Science, take a class and talk to the department faculty. Even if you decide CS is not for you, computer science introductory courses (CS 104, CS 105, CS 106) and the computational methods introductory course (CM 151) count as Common Course of Study Natural Science credit for non-majors.

What are the introductory courses for a minor in Computer Science?

Students pursuing a Minor in Computer Science are suggested to complete one of the initial CS courses in their first year. This will be either one of the various introductory courses (CS 102, CS 104, CS 105, or CS 106) or Data Structures and Algorithms (CS 103, CS 150).

Why did you choose to be a computer science major?

I chose to be a computer science major because of the array of opportunities it offers. Also, technology is embedded in our lives and having a degree in computer science allows you to understand it and change it for the better. The Department of Computer Science at Pomona is very supportive.

Why did you choose CS as a major?

After finishing CS introductory sequence, I realized that I simply love to code and declared myself a CS major. My favorite aspect of CS is its capability to turn my instructions into actions with incredible precision, reliability and efficiency. Thus, all practical fields in CS interest me.
