Description:

SIAT's graduate program focuses on the technological change that is radically reshaping our world today. We believe that intellectual diversity and multiple perspectives are essential to address such change. Views and research traditions from design, art, the humanities, science and technology are all part of our community. We offer Master of Arts, Master of Science and Doctor of Philosophy degrees. Admission to the program depends on prior academic preparation, intended focus of study, and identified fit and supervisory agreement with one of our research faculty members. The Master of Science degree is for students working within a scientific and technological area. Course work in this degree includes core courses in artificial intelligence, knowledge visualization and cognition. Methods of research include the mathematical models and quantitative methods of evaluation.



The Accelerated Master's allows undergraduate students to take graduate level courses and apply these to both their undergraduate and graduate course requirements. This is not a degree program. It is a path that allows SFU undergraduate students planning to pursue graduate studies to complete their graduate coursework in less time.
