Degree Name Change Approved
Thursday, Jun. 19, 2008 1:30 PM
The Academic Affairs Committee and Provost approved the department's proposal to change the name of our degree from “Bachelor of Science in Computer Engineering” to “Bachelor of Science in Computer Science and Engineering.” The new degree name better describes our current curriculum, and better conveys that our program emphasizes both the theory and practice of computing, through both software and hardware systems. We feel that the new degree name accurately describes the strong, well-rounded computing education our graduates possess.
