Computer Science, B.S.

Computer Science is the discipline that studies the theoretical foundations of computing - algorithms, discrete mathematics, programming language theory, parallelism, etc. - and applies these principles to solve problems in the real world.

The B.S. in Computer Science program at UWG offers students a focused and progressive curriculum that integrates that knowledge with the software engineering skills critical for success as software developers in today’s information technology job market.
