About the course

Computer science is about creating innovative solutions to complex, real-world problems. Students in this major study step-by-step computational methods for solving problems by encoding, storing, tracking and transforming information. Computer science is much broader than just programming. It is informed by the theory and architecture of computing devices, and the tools and practices used to design and implement software.

　　The department offers a wide range of specialized senior-level courses where students can explore in depth different areas of computer science including: big data, computer networks, distributed systems, artificial intelligence, machine learning, computational biology / bioinformatics, human-computer interaction, graphics, database systems, compilers, parallel programming, object oriented design, and advanced topics in algorithms and theory of computer science.

　　Learning Outcomes

　　Upon completing this program, students will be able to:

　　Understand how to use the principles of computing to design and develop software and computing systems.

　　Work effectively in teams to develop computational solutions to complex problems.

　　Communicate technical ideas effectively in writing and verbally.

　　Practice CS in an ethical and socially responsible manner, with an awareness of biases that can result from their indiscriminate use.

　　Confidently pursue graduate studies or professional employment in the field of computer science. Scholarships - View all scholarships Internships
