  Cooperative Education

  Students are required to participate in the University’s Cooperative Education Program. In this program, at the end of the sophomore and junior year, students are assisted in finding employment to gain experience (and pay) in a computing field. Students must register for the 1 credit online course ENGR 3000 prior to their first co-op. Four credits of co-op will be counted toward graduation. Students are encouraged to complete additional co-op assignments.

  Pre-Medical/Pre-Dental Track

  Students interested in a medical or dental professional school can earn any major as an undergraduate. Given the increasingly technical nature of these fields, Computer Science is a very attractive major for those with medical/dental career aspirations. A year of Biology, Chemistry, Biochemistry, Organic Chemistry, and Physics with accompanying labs should be taken by students interested in applying for medical or dental school. A course in Biochemistry and Physiology with labs is also highly recommended.

  Combined Bachelor/Master Program

  New freshmen with high GPA and ACT/SAT test scores, or Computer Science students entering their senior year who have achieved a grade point average of 3.25 and are on-track to finish their bachelor degree in four years can apply for the Five-Year Bachelor-Master Program to complete both a bachelor's degree and a master's degree in five years. This is an exceptional opportunity for outstanding students to begin their professional careers with a great academic advantage. For additional information, see the catalog page on 5-year Bachelor Masters in Computer Science.

  Computer Science Minor

  Computer Science deals with the application of various algorithms and techniques to solve computing problems in virtually every discipline. There is a constantly increasing demand for computing skills in all businesses and industry. A minor in Computer Science will complement any field of study with computing knowledge, and promote computational thinking among students enabling them to apply computing skills to their prospective fields. Many non-computer professionals are using and applying computers to solve critical problems in their fields. With a minor in computer science, students will be transformed from mere users to professionals who can integrate software design and programming with other disciplines.
