The 21-hour Computer Information Systems Minor will provide the student with a general understanding of analysis, design, and implementation of applications via third- and fourth-generation programming languages and pre-written packages. This minor is intended for the student expecting to use computers in a job-supportive mode.

The Computer Science major emphasizes the practical application of basic concepts from the different areas of study in the discipline, and strives to give an understanding of and appreciation for their interrelation. Computer science majors are given the skills and confidence to work with all the cutting-edge software and hardware. As a graduate, you are prepared fully to "hit the ground running" with such high tech companies as Hewlett-Packard, IBM and Microsoft.

The Digital Media Studies major is an interdisciplinary program joining Art, Communication Arts, and Computer Science. Its purpose is to produce a student that is aesthetically, theoretically, and technologically trained and capable of excellence in the relatively new area of the design, production, and implementation of digital communications media. The computer science emphasis focuses on the technical nature of digital media. If you wish to delve into the intricacies of programming, networking, and databasing, you will find that this emphasis will further challenge and develop your knowledge in the behind-the-scenes world of digital media.
