Is a Computer Science degree right for me?
With the ever-increasing use of computers and computer software in all aspects of human life, computer science is now an integral part of all fields of study — not just the traditional fields of science and engineering. With two options, a BS degree and a BA degree, students with a variety of interests and strengths can now pursue computer science in tandem with other fields of study.Bachelor of Arts (BA)
This degree is a good fit for students interested in applying the tools and techniques of computer science to solving problems in science, arts, humanities, business, engineering, and other areas.
Bachelor of Science (BS)
The BS in Computer Science prepares qualified graduates who will be successful in the computing profession or in graduate school, and gain the following abilities within a few years of graduation from our program.
What can I do with this degree?
Are you interested in self-driving cars? Google algorithms? MIT Lincoln Labs? Tesla? Facebook? SpaceX? Twitter? If you’re interested in a discipline that defines the future and can lead you to fields where jobs are only increasing, then computer science is right for you.What sort of classes will I take?
