BRIEF DESCRIPTION
Master of Computer Science Study Program (Master of Computer Science Program) is an academic-oriented education that was established in 1999. Graduates of the Computer Science Masters program acquired the M.Cs (Master of Computer Science) degree. The Master of Computer Science has been known nationally and internationally, represented by students of multi-ethnicity coming from various islands in Indonesia (from Sabang to Merauke) as well as overseas. As of December 2018, the Computer Science Masters Program has produced more than 1,000 graduates.
EXCELLENCE AND UNIQUENESS
- The Computer Science Masters program offers 3 main profiles of graduates, namely:
- Intelligent System Designer
- Data scientist, and
- Lecturer or Researcher.
- The Computer Science Masters Program has become a reference for similar study programs in other tertiary institutions.
- Has obtained the best consecutive national accreditation (BAN-PT) and international accreditation (ASIIN).
- There are 30 Supporting Staff in the Computer Science Masters Program, all of whom have Doctorates from various branches of Computer Science, graduates from leading home and abroad universities.
- The Master of Computer Science program in conducting its research is supported by five scientific laboratories, namely Computing, Intelligent Systems, Software and Data Engineering, Computer and Network Systems, and Instrumentation Electronics.
- The Master of Computer Science Program also has various collaborative programs with domestic and foreign universities, government and private institutions which have been carried out in the form of education and research.
- Starting from the academic year 2018/2019 the Department of Computer and Electronics Science (DIKE) offers UGM Masters of Computer Science students to be able to participate in the Double Degree program at various overseas universities, including:
- Graduate School of Natural Science and Technology, Kanazawa University, Japan.
- Department of Computer Science and Information Engineering, National Central University (NCU), Taiwan.
- Department of Information Management, National Taiwan University of Science and Technology (NTUST), Taiwan.
- School of Computer Science, University of Birmingham (UoB), United Kingdom.
- In 2019, the Master of Computer Science Program UGM offers a scholarship program for Masters students in the class of 2019. The scholarships are in the form of tuition fee exemption for a maximum of 4 semesters.
- The Computer Science Masters Program offers Pre-Masters classes to assist applicants in reviewing the main material at the undergraduate level that are essential for continuing their studies at the master’s level, providing preliminary knowledge about the Computer Science master’s program as well as preparing themselves for the selection examination.
