Admission to M.S. in Computer Engineering program requires:
A Bachelor of Science degree in electrical engineering, computer engineering or computer science from an accredited university. This should include courses or equivalent experience in the following areas: introductory computer programming, logic circuits, digital interfacing circuits and data structures. These courses can be taken at Fairleigh Dickinson University but will not count toward the 30-credit master's degree requirement. Students with a Bachelor of Science degree in technology or other areas of science and engineering may be admitted if they complete undergraduate prerequisites as determined by an adviser of the school.
Submission of an official score report for the Graduate Record Examination (GRE) General Test taken within the last five years. The GRE requirement is waived for applicants who have completed a master's degree from a regionally accredited college or university in United States.

Applicants whose native language is not English, and have not earned a degree at an English-speaking college or university, may be required to take either the TOEFL, IELTS, or Pearsons PTE-A exam. The minimum required score for the TOEFL is: 550 for the paper-based test, 213 for the computer-based test and 79 on the Internet-based test. For the IELTS exam: overall band score of 6.0 and for the Pearsons PTE-A exam: 53 or higher.
