Can I apply for graduate school in computer science with a bachelor in Civil Engineer

Graduate School
1

<p>Hi, guys, I am currently undergraduate student in Civil Engineering major, and interested in computer science. So, I am planning to apply for graduate school for Master degree of Computer Science after I graduate. Although I don't have any academic background in this field of computer science, I have been learning some techniques of CS since high school by myself, such as C/C++, Python, algorithms, etc.</p>

<p>Is it possible or is there a big chance to get in those M.S. programs of computer science? I can't GRE CS test t prove my CS background because it is discontinued since April this year. So, what can I do to enhance my application for it? Any suggestion will be appreciated. Thanks in advance.</p>

<p>Yes, it is possible but you will probably be asked to take some remedial courses, sort of a programming boot camp to be prepared for the graduate courses.</p>

<p>Here is an example some of the foundational classes that they will be looking for you to take post-bac or conditional on admissions.</p>
