B.A. in Computer Science


StudyTech

Be a dynamic software innovator with cross-disciplinary skills.

The B.A. in Computer Science contains the same strong foundation in programming and software engineering as the B.S. with additional flexibility to add minors from other fields such as accounting, management, design, biology, or writing. These combinations will shape your understanding of computing in the context of another domain, preparing you to use your technical skills to help people solve relevant problems. Read more about the differences between the B.S. and B.A. degrees.
