I enrolled in Sofia University’s MSCS program for its rigorous curriculum in advanced computer science topics such as artificial intelligence, drones, and robotics, its Silicon Valley location, and its faculty’s technology industry experience. The course content turned out to be innovative and cutting edge, and the program exceeded my expectations. I strongly recommend it!

I’ve learned a lot of new things which can help me to improve my researching, writing, and analyzing skill set. As a result, I can become a better problem solver and more easily tackle complex projects. By earning a graduate degree from Sofia University, I continue to expand upon a wealth of knowledge, preparing myself for a life of constant learning.
