Program Purpose
Graduates in Computer Science are prepared to be competent software developers and technical problem solvers. Students are also prepared for research into new avenues where computers will have a significant impact, and a large number of our graduates pursue graduate degrees Computer Science or other disciplines. Graduates are prepared for the lifelong learning necessary in this fast-moving field, including a solid background in both rigorous theoretical foundations and practical training.
Expected Learning Outcomes
Graduates of the Computer Science program should expect to be capable computer scientists in the following ways:
1. Computational Practice: Students will perform analysis, specification, design, implementation, and testing resulting in quality computer software solutions. Students will use data structures, algorithms, programming languages, and software engineering techniques to implement significant programming projects.
2. Computational Theory: Students will have the theoretical computer science background and the mathematical and analytical maturity necessary to allow them to follow and adapt to technological changes in their discipline or to enter graduate programs in Computer Science. Students will use automata theory, mathematics, and abstraction to analyze problems and their algorithmic solutions.
3. Critical Thinking and Communication: Students will think clearly and communicate well. They have the ability to gather relevant data, reason clearly, and persuasively express their conclusions orally and in writing.
4. Ethics and Computing: Students will demonstrate the knowledge and spiritual foundation necessary to make ethical and responsible choices. They will be prepared to use their computing skills to make a positive impact on society.
