Bachelor of Science [B.S] [Computer Science] From Shepherd University

The computer and information sciences program at Shepherd University is a comprehensive program with concentrations in computer science (CS), computer programming and information systems (CPIS), networking and security (NS), and computer graphics and game design (CGG). The approach is to teach students fundamental principles and problem-solving skills so that they are able to become creative problem solvers, develop and manage state-of-the-art computing systems, and have productive careers in computer science or information technology.

Graduates of the Computer Science program will be prepared to apply their knowledge professionally in the computer industry or to pursue graduate studies. The students are recruited on campus each year by major companies in need of excellent computer science graduates.

The four concentrations provide students flexibility to choose a course of study most interesting to them. The students are encouraged to seek the opportunity to double-major in areas ranging from mathematics, engineering, economics, and business to psychology.
