Computer Science, B.A.
|
|
The B.A. in Computer Science allows students room to pursue a second major combined with computer science. This encourages inter- and multi-disciplinary study, developing well-rounded students ready to contribute to an increasingly interdisciplinary world that utilizes computation.
The B.A. in Computer Science consists of 27 hours of computer science courses, MATH 225 and either a second major or a minor that is significantly distinct from the computer science degree.
