Graduates earning a Bachelor of Science in Computer Science will possess the following: the requisite qualifications for obtaining employment as a computer scientist; an understanding that life-long learning is an integral part of personal, professional and social interaction; and the requisite qualifications for pursuing an advanced degree in Computer Science or a related field, particularly when the curriculum is augmented with additional selected math courses. By adding the Minor in Business Administration, they may complete the MBA in a 5th year; this is particularly important for those students interested in graduate work as part of the National Information Assurance Training and Education Center (NIATEC).

Students wishing to become computer science majors should contact the CS office to have an advisor assigned to them and to sketch out an initial program of study. While taking CS 3308, CS majors must contact their CS advisor to revise their program of study.
