MS Software Engineering Off-campus Programs

The College of Engineering and the Computer Engineering department, in conjunction with Silicon Valley businesses, offer on-site degree programs. The programs are offered as a cohort where all students take the same classes on an accelerated schedule that is tailored to the working student. One example is the  IBM Cohort 2, MS Software Engineering, degree program held at IBM's Silicon Valley Labs in South San Jose.

The College of Engineering and the Computer Engineering department also offer "open" cohorts that are not affiliated with a specific company. Cohorts in Cloud/Mobile Technologies and Data Science are currently in progress.
