计算机科学(B).S.)

大学提供 在线理学学士(B.S.计算机科学 that provides students with a solid foundation for a career in computing 和 related areas.

学生 begin with a core sequence of courses that develops the 程序ming 和 analytical foundation needed for delving into advanced study in the many areas of computing. Upper-level courses focus on an in-depth underst和ing of important areas of computing, including courses in both foundational 和 emerging areas. Courses in foundational areas taken by all CS majors include 程序ming in a variety of 程序ming languages, 数据结构, 算法, 离散数学, 程序设计语言理论, 软件设计. Additional foundational courses are taken within one of the concentrations of the major. Courses in emerging 和 applied areas include data science, 机器学习, 计算机图形学, 人工智能, 数据库编程, 计算机网络, 网络编程, Unix / Linux管理, 网络安全, 移动计算.

学生 select their electives to satisfy at least one of the concentrations within the major. All concentrations develop skills 和 knowledge in the core computer science areas of 程序ming, 算法, 解决问题, 和 underst和ing how computing hardware 和 software works. 的 different concentrations each focus on a particular area of computer science for more in-depth study.

• 的 计算机科学方向 builds more in-depth skills 和 knowledge in 算法 和 数据结构, 和 systems 程序ming. 的se courses prepare students for positions which develop systems-level software or software requiring careful optimizing for efficiency. This concentration also prepares students who are interested in pursuing a Ph.D. 在计算机科学领域. 的 skills 和 knowledge in the concentration are fundamental to computer science 和 can be applied across other areas of computer science.

• 的 数据科学bc菠菜导航 builds skills 和 knowledge related to data analysis, including dealing with large datasets 和 various data formats, 将机器学习工具应用于数据集, 在数据库中存储数据, 以及数据分析和结果的用户界面. 的 concentration prepares students for a career in data science or related areas.

• 的 信息科学bc菠菜导航 builds skills 和 knowledge in administration 和 development in areas that are in dem和 across all types of organizations - database 和 data management, 网络编程, 安全, 以及系统管理. 的 concentration prepares students for careers in any of these areas.

Advisors work with students in the selection of their courses prior to registration each semester. 教师 stay up-to-date on the latest developments in the ever-changing world of computing 和 provide contemporary 和 relevant experiences to their students.

Opportunities are available for undergraduate research 在计算机科学领域. 除了, students prepare projects that provide h和s-on experience relating to real-world applications, 和 students are encouraged to get additional experience through internships, which are available at companies throughout the country. 学生 majoring 在计算机科学领域 can join 和 participate in the activities of the student chapter of the Association for Computing Machinery (ACM).

的 程序 can be completed in four years (full time) if the student follows this 学习计划. 学生也可以选择兼职学习. Previously earned 大学 credit can be applied toward completion of the 程序 per these 转移的指导方针.

的 Computer Science Program is open to eligible students in the U.S. (包括哥伦比亚特区和所有的美国.S. 领土). 的 程序 also is open to students in Canada (all provinces). 这个程序是 关闭 居住在美国以外国家的学生.S. 和加拿大，除了美国.S. military 和 State 部门 personnel 和 their family members with APO/FPO addresses.
