2020 SUMMER START PROGRAM
Congratulations! The Viterbi School of Engineering would like to provide you with an opportunity for admission to your M.S. degree through the 2020 Summer Start program. Due to the tremendous interest in our graduate programs from talented students around the world, it is not possible to accommodate all of the students we wish to admit. You were selected to be a part of a small number of talented students to begin your M.S. program in the summer. The Summer Start program is designed for Computer Science (all emphasis) majors.
As part of the Summer Start Program you will:
• Complete (possibly) the M.S. degree in three semesters or 15 months.
• Begin your MS program with a smaller cohort of peers.
• Enjoy access to faculty and other programs within a small cohort.
