Major in Computer Science
Computer-related courses with a focus on scientific and mathematical traditions of analysis and abstraction.
As a computer science major, you will study computer-related courses influenced by the scientific traditions of observation, hypothesis, proof, and the mathematical traditions of analysis and abstraction. The major can bolster your pursuit of an advanced degree, help you prepare for secondary school teaching of computer science, or lead to a career in research in business, industry, or government.
