Bachelor of Arts - Computer Science

The computer Science Bachelor of Arts degree serves students who want to couple knowledge of computing with knowledge from the Arts, Humanities, Business or other non-STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Mathematics) area. Students have more opportunity to pursue non-STEM coursework because in comparison to the B.S. options, fewer math and science courses are required ESOF 423 serves as the capstone for this option. 

A computer science degree is highly marketable. Between 2010 and 2020, one study projects that there will be a shortfall of 32 million technically specialized professionals in the U.S., Europe, Japan, China and India.  Consequently, students who graduate with a bachelor's degree in CS are in high demand.  The average starting salary is $65,000.

Our curriculum is designed with considerable flexibility, due to the numerous types of computer science jobs that exist. The bachelor's degree provides every student with a strong fundamental understanding of the field. Students may then select from exciting computer science electives such as artificial intelligence, computational biology, computer networks, databases, machine learning, robotics, operating systems, software engineering, web design and special topics courses. Students who complete a bachelor's degree will find themselves both highly marketable and well-prepared for graduate school.
