A successful major program of study leads to either the Bachelor of Science in computer science (B.S.) or the Bachelor of Arts in computer science (B.A.). Both degree programs require specific courses and/or credits in several key areas: computer science, math, basic science, humanities and social sciences. The Bachelor of Science degree has stronger technical requirements, particularly with respect to computer science course requirements. The Bachelor of Arts is intended for students who prefer a more traditional liberal arts curriculum, and likewise carries stronger requirements in non-technical areas. Regardless of degree choice, there is much flexibility in how the requirements are fulfilled. Undergraduate majors may choose to pursue a broad selection of computer science and distributional courses, or to pursue a focus area within the field. Current foci primarily reflect departmental and school research strengths: big data, computational biology, fundamentals of computing, information security, natural language processing, robotics, systems and networking; and also include career paths for software engineering and entrepreneurship. Regardless of whether students pursue a particular focus or not, our bachelor programs provide excellent preparation for research within the department, summer internships, and post-graduation industry employment or graduate work.
