About the course

The Bachelor of Arts in Computer Science gives students a solid foundation in computer science. Fewer required courses in the major and more electives allow students to pursue minors and a second major in other departments. Students may pursue a general track or an individual track that has a sequence of two independent study courses specially designed in collaboration with a faculty member. The general track follows the traditional computer science curriculum. The individual track allows for a partially individualized program of study in which a student would take, with the same computer science faculty member, 9 s.h. of independent study/senior design courses designed to accommodate the interests of both student and faculty member. Apart from the difference in the 9 s.h. of individualized study, the two tracks are identical. Note that there is a single BA degree program, no separate designation for the individual track will appear on the student's transcript. Graduates of the BA in computer science program will: Advance in graduate studies or be successful practitioners in applied or theoretical fields, Apply communication and organizational skills in the context of ethical issues affecting the discipline or society, Think critically and creatively to solve local or global problems and become lifelong learners and contributors to society, Apply knowledge and skills to solve problems effectively and efficiently and to advance computer science in applied areas.
