4. Electives (12 units)
   Any graduate course in Computer Science may be applied to this category. Any Computer Science course numbered 3000 (except 3898) or higher, provided it has not been already applied toward a B.S. degree or toward prerequisites for admission. This restriction includes equivalent courses from other degree programs; exceptions require the approval of the Computer Networks Graduate Committee.
5. Unit and Grade Requirements
   At least 45 quarter units of approved upper division and graduate work. Of these, at least 26 units must be approved graduate (6000-level) courses. All work toward the 45 units must be at an average grade of "B" (3.0) or higher. Grades below "C" will not be counted as prerequisites or toward the degree.

Yes, all students who receive a degree from CSU East Bay must demonstrate writing competency by passing the Writing Skills Test. A student cannot be advanced to candidacy and graduate until after this test is passed. Students should take this test as soon as possible after entering the university. If you have passed this exam at another CSU campus then you are not required to retake the exam.

Average scores vary from year to year. Potential students should score above the 20th percentile in the verbal section and abovethe 60th percentile in the quantitative section.

The following are prerequisite courses to the program. This means that applicants should have taken these courses during their undergraduate studies. Prerequisite course units will not be counted towards a graduate degree

CS 3240 - Data Structures and Algorithms
CS 3430 - Computer Architecture
CS 3590 - Data Communications and Computer Networking
CS 4590 - Computer Networking
CS 4560 - Operating Systems or CS 3560 - Systems Programming
STAT 3601 - Statistics or equivalent

Please note that these courses also have prerequisites which must be followed. The prerequisites for CS 3240 are: MATH 2150 (Discrete Structures), CS 2360 (Programming Methods and Introduction to Software Engineering), and CS 2430 (Computer Organization and Assembly Language). The prerequisites for CS 3430 are: MATH 2150 and CS 2340. The prerequisites for CS 3590 are CS 3430 and knowledge of C or C++.

Yes, students can be admitted prior to taking all the prerequisite courses. Note that these students will be considered “conditionally classified students until the prerequisite courses are completed. Prerequisite course units will not be counted towards the graduate degree. It is best to complete any prerequisites courses as soon as possible. Students who are “conditionally classified” may take a maximum of 20 units of graduate courses that count towards their M.S. degree prior to finishing their prerequisite courses.

If a student has taken the required prerequisite courses and any other deficiency courses listed on her letter of acceptance, and the student has a “B” average or better in at least 12 quarter units of graduate study at CSUEB, and has passed the University Writing Skills requirement, she may petition the graduate coordinator for “classified status". The form for petitioning can be obtained from the Math/Computer Science Department. After filling out the form, bring it back to the department office for filing.

There are 45 units required for the MS Computer Networks degree. Typically each course is four units. A breakdown of the units per course category is as follows:

12 units of Required courses
16 units of Breadth courses
12 units of Elective courses
5 units for the Capstone Experience

There are no substitutions for the Required courses, however, in some cases, alternative courses may be substituted for those in the Breadth category. In general, only courses numbered 6000 and above may be used as substitutions. All substitutions require approval by a graduate coordinator.

The Capstone Experience is designed to give students the opportunity to do an original project and report in the are of computer networks. The Capstone Experience is a course, CS 6899, which is offered once per year during Winter quarter. It is organized as a seminar course designed to guide the development of the Capstone Project, which will be summarized in a formal “thesis” style written report and oral presentation. The prerequisite to this course is advancement to candidacy.

Students register for this course with a Special Registration Petition available in the Math/ Computer Science Student Service Center located in North Science 337, (510) 885-4011. A graduate coordinator must sign the form to enroll the student.

Students may also take the Capstone course as an independent study if a professor is willing and able to guide the student's work. Students should speak to a professor first, then register for the course with a Special Registration Petition. A project proposal must be attached to Special Registration Petition, and the professor and graduate coordinator must sign the form.

Advancement to candidacy is a university requirement for graduation and is also a prerequisite for the Capstone Experience. To be advanced to candidacy a student must have:

• Passed the Writing Skills Test
• Complete at least 16 quarter units towards the degree. These units must include at least two of the core courses of the program and the grades for these courses must be “B” or better

The Capstone project is meant to be a large programming/research project. It typically involves formal specifications, software design, testing, and evaluation. The project paper is meant to be a formal description of the project. Students must present their work at the end of the Capstone Course. An example outline for the paper is as follows:
