Bu program sende ne görüyor?

A reasonable high-value target/reach boundary: the work profile fits, and General MSCS technically offers a thesis, but 3.21 and scarce thesis advisers make the research route uncertain. Use systems-focused production impact and the public educational body of work to stand out; apply only to General MSCS and identify plausible thesis advisers before committing.
