Computer Science BS

Software is at the core of many fields: science, medicine, education, business, and government. Simulating heart function, building large web frameworks, and defending our nation's secrets are all critically dependent on software. As a computer science major, students study the entire software engineering process from defining a problem, to designing a solution, building it, refining it, and testing it. But it's not just software - students also learn about the computer's hardware, and the overlying business and fundamental mathematics behind the software solutions.
