The Computer Science program main focus is the preparation of the student for the pursuit of a graduate degree computer science or computer engineering. The primary objectives for computer science majors are:
* A general understanding of computer technology and function
* Design and use of software
* Use of the computer for problem solving
* Tendencies and limitations of computer technology
Mission: Our mission is to provide a high quality undergraduate education in computer science which prepares students for productive careers and further study.
Program Educational Objectives: Graduates of the Bachelor Science in the computer science program are expected to:
Use their expertise to solve problems in core areas of computer science.
Apply written and oral communication skills individually and in team environments. ...
Aristotle wrote [The function of rhetoric is] "to see the available means of persuasion in each case." In other words, rhetorical studies attempts to locate the options available for influencing individual persons or groups of people in a variety of different situations.
In Aristotle's time the preferred strategy was a well-crafted speech. Today,in a heavily mediated-environment, the options available to the rhetorician include speeches,...
The curriculum for the Bachelor of Arts degree Computer Science is based on current recommendations offered by the Association for Computing Machinery (ACM) for liberal arts institutions. The program is designed to provide a solid foundation in the fundamentals of computer science. At the same time, it provides practical, hands-on experience with computing systems, as the current technology job market dictates.
The curriculum for the Bachelor Science major in Computer Science is based on requirements specified by the Computer Science Accreditation Board (CSAB). The program is designed to provide an extensive background in computer science and is well-suited for students considering graduate study or students planning to pursue careers in science or engineering.
Students must complete a 12-course computer science component, supplemented by a mathematics...
Computer Science is the systematic study of the feasibility, structure, expression, and mechanization of the methodical processes (or algorithms) that underlie the acquisition, representation, processing, storage, communication of, and access to information, whether such information is encoded in bits and bytes in a computer memory or transcribed in genes and protein structures in a human cell. The fundamental question underlying all of computing...
Asia is home to half the world's population and much of its history. Bowdoin offers Asian Studies courses in anthropology, art, government, history, literature, music, religion, and sociology, as well as Chinese and Japanese language instruction. Majors focus on either South Asia (India, Sri Lanka, Pakistan, Bangladesh, and Nepal) or East Asia (China and Japan). We encourage students to study abroad during their junior year. Student-designed majors...
Computer science is a dynamic and exciting scientific discipline. The Computer Science Department at Bowdoin offers major program, as well as an interdisciplinary major with mathematics. This program support the fundamental liberal arts philosophy that emphasizes breadth and depth of study, critical analysis of ideas, exposure to different modes of inquiry, a mature style of writing and other forms of discourse, and multicultural awareness through...

Computer scientists are mainly concerned with software development and systems design. They are usually employed by computer manufacturers and software houses specializing in systems software and are expected to produce operating systems, language translators, data management software, and other programming, processing, and operating aids to be used in conjunction with computer hardware.
As developers of basic computer technology, their preparation...
All students are welcome to enroll in any course in the program unless prerequisites are stipulated. Students interested in learning more about the comparative literature major are encouraged to speak with the undergraduate advising head for comparative literature. Keep in mind that three literature courses must be taken in a language other than English. Students are strongly encouraged to spend at least one semester abroad, preferably in a country...
The undergraduate program in computer science teaches the theoretical fundamentals and practical aspects of computing, preparing students for creative jobs in the computer industry and/or for graduate school. In addition, our curriculum is a stimulating and useful preparation for a number of indirectly related professions, such as law, medicine, and economics.
In today's world, everybody uses and depends on computers. And the people they depend on to make those computers useful are the people who majored in Computer Science in college. Briar Cliff's Computer Science program gives students a thorough understanding of how computers work and provides students with the opportunity to develop the computer programming and problem solving skills that are in demand in today's business world.
While online versions of the core courses and most of the upper-level courses for these degrees are offered on a regular basis, others are not offered online with sufficient frequency to satisfy online students. For this reason, students who do not have any college level course work and wish to complete a degree online, will need to work with an advisor to determine how best to meet their degree requirements....
