BS: Computer Science 2021-2022

Computer Science permeates every aspect of human endeavor, and thus it is a truly interdisciplinary field. CS is fast growing, and its graduates are in demand in our community and nation-wide. We respond to this demand by teaching our students with a “hands-on” and “problem-solving” approach, and we strive to give our students a strong grounding in the fundamental science of computing, as well as the necessary technical knowledge to succeed in the job market. As the field is fast growing, we realize that we serve our students best by being top experts in our respective research fields. Thus we aim to embody the teacher-scholar model in our academic lives.
