The Department of Computer Science offers a graduate (MS degree), an undergraduate (BS degree), and a blended (BS+MS degrees) programs of study. These degree programs have been designed to prepare qualified students for careers involving the design of computer systems and their application to science and industry. The programs are structured with a maximum of flexibility to insure that the student has the opportunity to direct his or her studies in the pursuit of the above stated goals.
The Bachelor of Science in Computer Science is accredited by the Computing Accreditation Commission of ABET, http://www.abet.org, 111 Market Place, Suite 1050, Baltimore, MD 21202-4012 - telephone: (410) 347-7700.
The Department of Computer Science conducts an annual Programming Festival(Competition) that is open to California high school and community college students and offers them the opportunity to solve college-level and real-world programming problems by applying the principles of computer science. We believe today's high school and college students have great potential, and we hope this experience will help them in their future studies of computer science and software engineering.
