Computer Science
"I teach computer science, but I am also in the business of teaching students to think."
Deborah Hwang
Associate Professor of Computer Science
The computer science degree prepares students for all areas of the computer industry and for continuing study in graduate school. Course work emphasizes the design and implementation of computer software systems in areas such as operating systems, programming languages, software engineering, computer architecture, networks, graphics, artificial intelligence, and theoretical aspects of computing such as formal languages and analysis of algorithms.
The computer science curriculum at UE features:
Project based. As part of the course work, all students participate in projects and in a formal year-long senior design project course.
Small class sizes. A typical computer engineering class will have 6 to 15 students.
Professional degree. With a BS in computer science, graduates are prepared for a position in industry or may continue on to graduate school.
Study abroad. Computer science majors may choose to spend one semester at Harlaxton College, our campus in Grantham, England.
Dedicated faculty. The faculty in computer science are dedicated to undergraduate education. Classes are taught by faculty members not graduate students.
Employment opportunities. The demand for computer scientists is strong and will likely remain strong for the foreseeable future.
You'll have the opportunity to study abroad. We have the only CAC-ABET accredited Computer Science degree in southern Indiana.
