Final Answer :
B
Explanation :
The sentence is a fragment as it does not contain a subject. It is a dependent clause without an independent clause to complete the thought. It could be corrected by adding an independent clause such as "She completed her bachelor's degree in computer engineering and then went on to receive a master's in that field and a second master's in computer science."
