BA/BS in Computer and Information Sciences, General

Rather than teaching particular tools, this degree emphasizes the math and theory behind computing. That base prepares graduates for fields like robotics, gaming, virtual reality, computer vision and computer architecture. The department works from an engineering building named for L3Harris, with classrooms and research labs. Facilities include a digital grid lab built with Siemens and a planned lab for immersive augmented and virtual reality. Internationally known faculty teach fundamental and applied subjects, from algorithms and data structures to computer hardware design and wider uses of computational thinking. The program is part of the Engineering and Computer Science college at the University of Central Florida in Orlando, Florida. Prospective students can use the program page to learn more, request information and review degree requirements and application deadlines before applying. Tuition is charged per credit hour, with separate rates for Florida residents and out-of-state students.
