The mission of the Computer Science department is to provide, for majors and non-majors, traditional and part-time students, a learning environment that remains grounded in the liberal arts tradition while incorporating current curriculum standards and computer technologies. Our students graduate with a strong general education, a knowledge of computer science sufficient for professional competence or graduate school admission.

The results of our students' work speak for themselves - here is our Departmental Web site, developed by students. It contains detailed information about the academic programs in computer science and computer information systems, undergraduate research opportunities, links to on-line learning resources, advice about internships and scholarships, as well as advice about career planning and preparation for graduate school.
