Computer science is the study of the representation, storage, and manipulation of information. The Department of Computer Science prepares its students for both graduate study and careers in computer science, system analysis and design, software engineering, and networking.

The department offers programs leading to the Bachelor of Arts, Bachelor of Science and Associate of Science degrees. The department cooperates with the School of Engineering in offering a computer engineering concentration in the Bachelor of Science in Engineering Degree. The School of Business and The Department of Computer Science jointly offer a major in information systems (B.S.).

The Bachelor of Science degree will prepare students for careers or graduate study in computer science. The Bachelor of Arts degree will prepare students for careers in fields applying computer information and technology. The Bachelor of Science in Engineering with a concentration in computer engineering will prepare students for careers or graduate study in both computer science and computer engineering.
