The principal goal of the College of Information Science and Technology (IS&T) is to produce the next generation of information specialists. The College is committed to providing comprehensive, current, and quality education to students as illustrated by its motto: No student will go unchallenged or unassisted. Students graduating from our programs are prepared technically to enter the information industry, apply technology in organizational environments, embrace life-long learning, and contribute to their communities. IS&T is utilizing some of the following methods to achieve its objectives: Forming partnerships with the business community Assisting students in finding internships Offering challenging courses, including seminars and special topics courses Facilitating faculty and executive-in-residence programs Providing the latest in curriculum, programs and computer technology Identifying future needs in business and information technology, and preparing students to meet those needs Aiding students with career planning and job searches ACCREDITATION The College of Information Science and Technology undergraduate programs in Computer Science and Management Information Systems are accredited by the Computing Accreditation Commission of the Accreditation Board for Engineering and Technology (ABET), 111 Market Place, Suite 1050, Baltimore, MD 21202-4012, telephone: 410/347-7700. DEGREES Bachelor of Science in Computer Science (BSCS) The objectives of the Computer Science curriculum are to provide students with: an environment conducive to understanding the paradigms of the Computer Science discipline an appropriate balance between formal theory, concepts and the more pragmatic issues of the discipline maximum flexibility in tailoring their programs of study to satisfy their specific career objectives and aspirations The program is designed to meet several principal objectives: provide students with a foundation for graduate study provide students with a foundation for entry into the computing profession provide students with a foundation for lifelong personal and professional growth through the pursuit of a variety of career paths educate students to assume leadership positions in diversified, rapidly changing fields including system design, development and integration; software process technology and management; information technology and management; and computer communications and networking INTERNSHIP PROGRAM The College of IS&T has a unique opportunity to match students and businesses together through its internship program, which is structured for junior and senior students who desire a work environment where they can apply the knowledge they acquire in the classroom to a work situation. Arrangements are made for the experience to be full or part time, and academic credit can also be determined depending on the opportunities involved in the work assignment. Through internships, businesses have the opportunity to assess an individual s performance level, problem solving skills, and ability to work in a group, and students are prepared for the best jobs because they are challenged to learn the skills needed to become the leaders of tomorrow. CAREER FIELDS The Computer Science (CS) program provides a firm foundation in the theory and applications of computing while allowing for additional concentration in areas of choice such as information systems, mainframe 2 P age
computing, computer networking, telecommunications, data and knowledge engineering, software development and many others. A bachelor of science degree in Computer Science (BSCS) provides the educational background appropriate for pursuing career opportunities as a mainframe, PC or UNIX programmer, systems analyst, applications developer, Internet/Intranet or web developer, systems administrator or network administrator. A graduate of this program will also be prepared for graduate studies in Computer Science or a related field. This brochure provides basic information about the Computer Science degree. All potential CS majors are encouraged to see an advisor to determine a suggested program schedule.
