As an undergraduate student, you will take traditional computer science courses in programming, languages, algorithms, data structures, databases, object-oriented design, architecture, and operating systems.
The undergraduate program prepares you to be a problem-solver and innovator that will be able to analyze a problem and propose a computing solution. You will learn not only the technical skills, but also develop abilities to communicate, work with teams of people, and make informed judgments about your computing solutions with respect to societal, legal, and ethical principles.

From the operating software we use on a daily basis to the security of our critical infrastructures, computer scientists develop ways to solve problems, process information, and secure our future. Computer programmers harness the technology of our world, making computers continually innovative and limitlessly functional in a wide variety of engineered, medical, and social contexts.
Computer Science is the development of algorithms to solve real-world problems in a mechanized way. Computer scientists write programs to control computer systems, engineered systems, and work on applications that use computers. They work in cyber security, networking, distributed systems, databases, and artificial intelligence.
S&T Computer Science graduates work for technological companies, law enforcement, national defense institutions, the financial industry, and computer manufacturing.
