The initial track for the MS CC degree will be coursework only. The general degree requirements will include 4 graduate criminology courses and 7 graduate computer science (CS) courses related to information assurance and computer security for a total of 33 hours. The 6 required CS courses will fulfill an NSA approved certificate program, which will facilitate graduates from the program with getting employment with a federal government agency or a government contractor after they graduate. A description of the certificate program can be found here.
In addition, MS CC students will have to complete certain undergraduate prerequisites, shown below, before graduating, and will likely have to complete a subset of these courses before being admitted to the MS CC degree program. Note that CIS 4385 is required for the FSU BS in Computer Criminology and the other four courses are required for the FSU BS in Computer Science and BA in Computer Science degrees.
