There is no longer a need to argue the impact and importance of computer technology on all aspects of our society. In virtually all fields, computers are used as tools. From art to academia, law to medicine, marketing to film, computers will be a part of everyone's future. Specialists are needed to create new software applications and the systems to support them. In addition, experts in areas outside the computing field need sufficient knowledge of computing to be able to guide the development of such applications and systems.
The Department of Computer Science offers programs of study for students at all levels, from non-majors to minors to majors. Students may choose a course of study from computer literacy to the B.S. in Computer Science. At the graduate level, the department offers M.A. and M.S. degrees in Computer Science.
