Bachelor of Science in Computer Science BS(CS)

Mission Statement

The mission of the CS program is to provide high quality education in computer science that prepares students for professional careers and lifelong learning in developing / managing computational processes and systems, with emphasis on systems automation, information management, management of IT infrastructure and Intelligent Systems.


Program Educational Objectives

To meet the needs of our constituents, our Program Education Objectives state that within a few years of graduation our graduates will have:

  1. Demonstrate a sound understanding of the main areas of the body of knowledge and the theories of computer science, with an ability to exercise critical judgment across a range of related issues.
  2. Critically analyze and apply a range of concepts, principles, and practices in net-centric computing, information management, management of IT infrastructure and intelligent systems; showing a range of problem solving skills and effective judgment in the selection and use of corresponding tools and techniques.
  3. Demonstrate the ability to work as an individual with minimum guidance and as a leader/member of a team.
  4. Follow appropriate practices within a professional, legal, and ethical framework.
  5. Identify mechanisms for continuing professional development and life-long learning.

Career Outcomes

Computer science is primarily concerned with information processes, the structure and procedures to represent them, and the systems for their implementation. Advancements in technology mean there is no shortage of need for computer scientists in today’s world. Training in computing and software development can take you to technical positions or open the door to many other careers, too. The following list provides some examples of positions a computer scientist might hold: Computer Programmer, Computer Engineer, Hardware Engineer, Information Systems Analyst, Software Engineer, Systems Analyst, Data Communications Analyst, Programmer-Analyst, Telecommunications Specialist, Computer Security Specialist, Computer Support Specialist and Teacher. Graduate student critical thinking, analysis, research, and creative problem-solving skills are highly valued in a variety of fields.
