Regulatory Affairs for Life Sciences, Graduate CertificateRegulatory Affairs for Life Sciences, Graduate Certificate 15 Credits

The Regulatory Affairs for Life Sciences Graduate Certificate program will provide students with the skills required to interpret and manage regulatory and quality compliance issuesthat are critical for the Life Sciences. The curriculum materials include formal studies that are specific to regulatory sciences (domestic and international), quality managementsystem, and design control. Students will gain experience in technical communications with an emphasis on the theory and practice of technical writing as it relates to industry-basedsubmissions. Students will participate in an internship or capstone project with a medical device, pharmaceutical, diagnostics, or biotechnology company. A baccalaureate degree in ascience or a technology-related area of study will be required.

Program RequirementsThe Master of Computer Science (MCS) degree at Utah Valley University is an applied graduate program focused on preparing students to enter the local, national, and globalworkforce as leaders and innovators rather than focusing on preparing students to conduct basic research. An MCS degree is considered a professional degree as graduate studentscomplete a graduate project rather than a theoretical or research-based thesis often associated with a Master of Science in Computer Science (MSCS) degree.

The focus of the degree does not mean you cannot explore exciting, cutting-edge new technologies; it just means we will focus your efforts on developing a working project thatapplies your new knowledge rather than focusing your efforts on basic research and writing papers on the topic. One should not assume that the degree's focus on completing aproject means that the MCS does not value writing or presenting presentations. To be a workforce leader and innovator, you must be able to express highly technical and complextopics concisely and clearly. Developing your technical communication skills will always be a part of the MCS.

The MCS requires students to complete 30 hours of course work beyond their undergraduate degree to gain additional breadth and depth. Six hours of this course work will beassociated with your graduate project where you will design and develop a large complex project from inception to completion. Students without an undergraduate degree incomputer science who have a passion for the field are encouraged to apply. In such cases a student can be conditionally admitted while they complete an individualized leveling plandesigned to bring their skills up to the required level to enter the MCS.

NOTE: Graduate policy precludes conditionally admitted students from taking any 6000 level courses. The UVU Computer Science Department cannot waive or alter this graduatepolicy.

Admission RequirementsThe most desirable background for an MCS student is someone with an undergraduate degree in a computer-related field (Computer Science, Computer Engineering, SoftwareEngineering, or a closely related field). The UVU Computer Science Department does not require nor does it use standardized test scores to evaluate the readiness of a candidateto begin the MCS. You will need an overall grade point average of 3.0 or higher on a 4.0 scale. Additionally, you will need to have completed the following UVU or equivalent classeswith a C+ or better:

• CS 2300 Discrete Structures I• CS 2420 Introduction to Algorithms and Data Structures• CS 2810 Computer Organization and Architecture• CS 3060 Operating Systems Theory• MATH 1210 Calculus I

• CS 2300 Discrete Structures I• CS 2420 Introduction to Algorithms and Data Structures• CS 2810 Computer Organization and Architecture• CS 3060 Operating Systems Theory• MATH 1210 Calculus I

5. Applicants found lacking in fundamental computer science background can be conditionally admitted to the MCS. Conditionally admitted students will have an individualized MCSLeveling Plan (MCS LP) developed for them by the Computer Science Graduate Committee. Once the MCS LP has been met by the applicant, the applicant will be deemed to havethe fundamental computer science background to enter the program. Graduate policy precludes conditionally admitted students from taking 6000 level courses.

6. Applicants found lacking in fundamental computer science background can be conditionally admitted to the MCS. Conditionally admitted students will have an individualized MCSLeveling Plan (MCS LP) developed for them by the Computer Science Graduate Committee. Once the MCS LP has been met by the applicant, the applicant will be deemed to havethe fundamental computer science background to enter the program. Graduate policy precludes conditionally admitted students from taking 6000 level courses.

7.All applicants will be subject to the approval of the Computer Science Graduate Committee.

The program offers elective tracks in addictions, mental health, and engaging with diverse populations.
