Department of Computer Science
Bachelor of Science Program
Mission Statement
The mission of the B.S. program is to provide a rigorous, liberal arts undergraduate degree with a strong emphasis on computer science, science, and mathematics. While providing a strong background in computer science, the degree should remain flexible enough to allow students to explore interdisciplinary fields (e.g., bioinformatics, computational linguistics) or to go on to professional schools (e.g., medical school, law school). Students who complete this program will be ready to enter the workforce as qualified computer scientists and to continue to build skills and mature as professionals throughout their careers. They will also be able to be successful in graduate school in Computer Science or other disciplines for which they have prepared themselves during their undergraduate program.
