Introduction

Computer science is the study of processes involving the storage, transmission and transformation of information in the context of modern electronic technology. Both theoretical and applied areas of computer science are represented in the courses offered by the department. The introductory courses (two for majors, one of three for non-majors) are concerned largely with programming as the primary tool used for understanding and controlling computation. The higher-level courses deal with theoretical concerns, the practical design of hardware and software, and a variety of application areas.
