— it helps other students.
Students can earn either a BS or a BA in computer science, each providing a foundation in computing for solving real-world problems. An AI concentration is open to eligible students in both paths, covering machine learning and other emerging areas.
The BS stresses technical preparation in computing, math and science, with core courses, upper-level electives, math and lab science. The BA blends computer science with an outside concentration and suits interdisciplinary interests.
Both paths require a writing and capstone-style experience in the third year, and the college also lists an accelerated master's option. Students choose the path that fits their interests, whether technical depth or a combination with another field, and may take courses such as software engineering to practice building working systems.
