Computing
Computer Science is the theoretical study and practical application of computation, and related topics. The B.Sc. Four-year Computing degree allows students to put together an individualized program of study. It is ideally suited for students interested in an interdisciplinary education, or to acquire more depth in a specialty area within Computer Science. Students who follow the Computing program might not acquire the breadth of background that a Computer Science program would provide. Students should consult an advisor in the Department of Computer Science when considering this program.
