BA/BS in Computer and Information Sciences, General

The computer science bachelor of arts prepares students to apply technology to practical problems. Areas students can explore include cybersecurity, cryptology, game development, and artificial intelligence. The program is housed in the Department of Computer Science and stresses programming, project management, and work with big data and cloud computing. Students study on the Fort Wayne campus of Purdue University Fort Wayne, where department faculty guide coursework and advising. The program page points prospective students to application, information request, and tuition resources, so planning for costs and next steps can begin early. The degree sits within a liberal arts framework, so students often combine it with minors, electives, or a second area of study. Faculty mentoring, small seminars, and campus activities help students apply what they learn and prepare for careers or graduate programs. Prospective applicants should confirm current course lists, admission steps, and requirements with the department.
