  Degree Requirements (BSCS 124 credits + MSSE 30 credits, 6 credits double-counted)

  The course requirements for the 5-Year BS in Computer Science to MS in Software Engineering include 124 credits of undergraduate course work and 30 credits of graduate coursework. Six credits taken at the graduate-level may be double-counted towards the undergraduate degree, so that the total credits completed will be at least 148 credits. The course requirements are based on the current existing requirements for each program separately.

  Please review separate catalog pages for BS in Computer Science and MS in Software Engineering for degree requirements.

  Admission Into the Program

  Qualifications for the 5-year Computer Science-Software Engineering program for new freshmen:

  • A minimum ACT composite score of 26, with a minimum of 22 in each section, and a minimum of 23 in the Mathematics section.  Or minimum SAT scores: 560 Mathematics, 560 ERW, and 1230 combined.
  • With ACT/SAT scores above: a high school grade point average of 3.4 overall on a 4.0 point scale, and the same for the combined mathematics, physics, chemistry and biology courses.
  • Without ACT/SAT scores: a high school grade point average of 3.6 overall on a 4.0 point scale, and the same for the combined mathematics, physics, chemistry and biology courses.
  • 麻豆APP must place into appropriate-level freshmen courses at Detroit Mercy in order to be able to complete both the bachelor and master degrees in five years.

  Qualifications for the 5-year Computer Science-Software Engineering program for current Detroit Mercy juniors/seniors:

  • 麻豆APP with a GPA of 3.25 and 95 credit hours may apply for the program near the end of their third year.
  • 麻豆APP must be on-track to complete their undergraduate degree in four years. (Some exceptions may apply.)

  If accepted into the program, students may take up to six graduate credits in their fourth year that will count towards both undergraduate and graduate requirements.

  In their fifth year, students will be registered as full-time graduate students, which requires that they are registered for at least nine credit hours of graduate-level courses per term. These courses will be charged at the graduate tuition rate.

  To remain in the program, undergraduate students must maintain a minimum 3.25 GPA at Detroit Mercy and be progressing steadily toward graduation.

  Advantages

  • Reduction in the total number of courses required to get both the bachelor and master degrees (students may count two three-credit classes (six credits total) towards both undergraduate and graduate requirements).
  • Ability to take up to two graduate courses at the undergraduate tuition rate with director/chair approval.

  The graduate courses, which may be taken during the undergraduate program that can also be applied toward the undergraduate degree requirements, must be approved by the academic advisor. 麻豆APP must receive a grade of "C" or better in order to gain credit towards both the undergraduate and graduate degrees.
