WHERE LOGIC MEETS CREATIVITY
A computer science degree is an excellent option if you are considering a technology career or considering graduate school in computer science after you get your bachelor's degree. This program encourages creativity and rewards initiative. Classes are dynamic: you learn by doing instead of just sitting in a chair listening to a lecture. You have opportunities to work one-on-one with your professors. Students considering a graduate program are encouraged to add a major or minor in mathematics.
