BA/BS in Computer Science

Computer Science at Taylor University builds a base in solving problems computationally, building multi-layer web applications, and designing software and algorithms. The core curriculum develops skills in analyzing, designing and building computer systems, with room to point the major toward personal interests. Electives and concentrations let students go deeper in areas such as AI and machine learning, cybersecurity, digital media, information systems and analytics, or theory. Faculty encourage students to weigh the ethical questions that technology raises, drawing on a faith-centered perspective. Students take part in lengthy programming practicums and research projects that last a full term, including computing for missions and satellite development. The department works closely with the Roth Center for Missions and Computing. Both Bachelor of Arts and Bachelor of Science degrees are offered, and a minor is also available.
