Objectives

The digital computer is one of the most useful devices developed by mankind. Computer science is the discipline concerned with the study of this device and how it can be used to process information and help solve complex problems. The computer science curriculum is designed to allow the future computer specialist to obtain a broad education coupled with detailed knowledge in computer science sufficient to lay a foundation for professional competence in the computing field. Non-specialists also may take computer science courses that will acquaint them with computing capabilities applicable to their main field of endeavor. Our programs in computer science, computer information systems, data analytics and information technology prepare students for vibrant careers in our technology-driven economy.

Computer Science Program Accreditation

The Bachelor of Science program with a major in computer science is accredited by the Computing Accreditation Commission of ABET (abet.org).

Student Organizations
