Online Master of Science in Computer Science (OMSCS), Machine Learning specialization

The Machine Learning specialization requires one algorithms course, one machine learning course (such as CS 7641 Machine Learning) and three ML-focused electives, which include options in deep learning, computer vision, reinforcement learning and natural language processing; the remaining 15 hours are free electives. Lectures are asynchronous but courses run on the semester calendar, with at most two courses in fall or spring and one in summer. Georgia Tech says students typically finish in about three years and must finish within six. New students must pass two foundational courses with a B or better in their first 12 months.
