Are you an innovator with an interest in technical entrepreneurship and advanced computer science?
The Master of Science in Applied Computing (MScAC) degree program prepares students for lifelong success as technical leaders in information technology.

The program begins with eight months of advanced courses focusing in computer science or data science, studying with Canada’s leading researchers. This is followed by an eight-month internship at an information technology company where you will apply research results to real-world problems.

The Department of Computer Science offers two concentrations within the MScAC program – the general concentration, and the Data Science concentration. The MScAC concentration in data science is offered jointly by the Department of Computer Science and the Department of Statistical Sciences. Both concentrations have the same course load.

Admission Requirements

  • An appropriate undergraduate degree in Computer Science or a related discipline.
  • A standing equivalent of at least B+ (77-79%) in your final year (i.e., two terms) of study (the equivalent of 5 full credits, or 10 half credits).
  • English-language proficiency.

Applicants also wishing to be considered for the Data Science concentration must have:

  • Completed an undergraduate degree in a related area, such as Computer Science, Mathematics, or any other discipline that includes significant exposure to statistics, computer science and mathematics, including coursework in advanced calculus, linear algebra, probability and statistics, programming languages, and computational methods.
  • Prior work experience (including co-op placements or internships) is preferred, but not required.

Good and serene place to learn. Teachers and professors are among the best in the world with indepth knowledge and 21st Century skills and experience. Teaching approach and methodology very pragmatic, hands-on and up-to-date. I am having a good time in my program and I highly recommend the University of Toronto.

I'm a new student, so I'm going to publish this anonymously. But I promise to come back here after graduation. The program is amazing but challenging. There's a lot of theory and essay writing, so if you want to do research, this is the place to be. UofT gets students a lot of shadowing experience in all wards but I feel like students at other schools will get more hands-on nursing experience than me. Either way, placements out of UofT are really good and the reputation can't be beat.
