Bachelor of Science - Information & Computer Sci-Computer Science
Degree Description
The Information and Computer Science (ICS) curriculum prepares students for a broad range of computer opportunities in industry as well as in graduate studies. ICS students choose one or more specialty areas from among these four options: Computer Science, Software Engineering, Data Management, or Networking. Depending on their chosen specialty area, ICS graduates are well prepared for these industry positions: Web programmer, applications programmer, systems analyst, information technology (IT) project manager, database analyst, or network analyst.
Program Competencies:
- Apply problem-solving and critical-thinking skills and use popular computer technologies in producing technology solutions.
- Communicate effectively, ethically, and professionally in a team environment.
- ICS/CS and ICS/SE students: Design and implement elegant programs that utilize data structures and operating systems concepts.
- ICS/NT students: Explain computer networking and security concepts and demonstrate proficiency in use of popular computer networking and security technologies.
- ICS/DM students: Design and implement elegant data management solutions.
The ICS Department works with Park's Career Development Center in helping to place students in computer internship positions. The ICS Department actively encourages students to work in such internship positions and considers internships to be an integral part of the ICS curriculum.
