About the Program

In the Computer Science program, you will build a solid foundation in the fundamental principles of computation. Our program is designed to provide both breadth across the field and depth through specialized tracks, preparing you to apply your knowledge to solve real-world problems. You will learn how to design and analyze algorithms, build systems, and explore advanced topics through a flexible structure that allows you to tailor your studies to your specific interests within computer science.

What You'll Study

Your studies will begin with a core foundation in the mathematical and theoretical foundations of computing, programming methodology and paradigms, and computer systems. After establishing this foundation, you can dive deeper into a specific area by choosing a specialization track. These tracks include:

• Artificial Intelligence

• Computational Biology

• Computer Engineering

• Visual Computing

• Human-Computer Interaction

• Information

• Systems 

• Theory

• Unspecialized

• Individually Designed (requires pre-approval) 

You may also choose the Unspecialized track for maximum flexibility in your upper-division coursework. You will have a chance to explore real-world problems at the frontier of contemporary computing in a rapidly changing field.
