Computer Science

Major

Computers store, retrieve, and communicate information, and solve problems in nearly every area of our society. Computer science concentrates on software aspects in the study of basic principles and tools used by computer pro-fessionals: algorithms and data structures, programming languages, computer hardware, numerical and symbolic computation, operating systems, networking, software methodology and tools, database and information retrieval, artificial intelligence, and visualization. A dual major with computer engineering is available.
  • The computer science major is accredited by the Accreditation Board of Education and Technology (ABET) and offers the students the option of a second concentration in science, mathematics, business, or bioinformatics.
  • Active student chapters of the Association for Computing Machinery and the IEEE Computer Society bring in nationally recognized speakers, sponsor career-oriented programs, and take field trips to learn about the computer operations of local companies.
