Note 1: According to CECS College requirement, you need to take 5 or more 6000-level courses to complete this MS program, so keep this in mind when registering elective courses. In addition, you can take up to 2 courses from the other track beyond your intended track (technical or interdisciplinary) to satisfy the non-thesis option.
Note 2: In order to register Criminal Justice classes (CCJ or CJE course prefix), you need to request permission from Ms. Elexis Ritz < elexis.ritz@ucf.edu >, Criminal Justice Graduate Program Advisor.
Note 3: Some courses have prerequisite that are not in the program’s list. Most of those prerequisite are not active and will not prevent you from registering courses. If you have trouble registering, you can contact the course’s instructor to get approval first, then fill out the online override form by clicking the ‘Forms’ menu.
Note 4: Because Department of Management has suspended its Cyber Risk Management Graduate Certificate program, all three ISM elective courses for the interdisciplinary track are not available in this academic year.
Note 5: CNT5805 normally is reserved for MS in Data Analytics program, but in Fall 2026 its 0001 session is open to all graduate students.
