Computer Science, BS
The School of Engineering and Computer Science offers the Bachelor of Science in Computer Science undergraduate program of study at Washington State University Vancouver campus.
It is the objective of the computer science program to provide a broad education in the science and application of computing. Students are expected to gain proficiency in the design and implementation of software systems, as well as the application of the theory of computing to that process. In addition, all students will develop a background in the hardware architectures that underlie software systems and the mathematics that provide the basis for science and computing.
Graduates in the BS degree program will have a solid technical background in mathematics and science. The Bachelor of Science degree requires substantial basic and advanced computer science course
work and is the traditional computer science degree.
The program was established and designed to prepare students to satisfy the needs of local and regional companies and organizations that use or design computers and/or software. The curriculum also prepares students for continued education at the graduate level in computer science.
