| About the
Computer Science Department |
The programs
in Computer Science at IUP prepare graduates
for productive work in highly computer-dependent
areas. In recent years, majors graduating from
the program have attained their first jobs in
business applications, programming and systems
analysis, computer software development, scientific
and applied mathematical programming, and have
gone to graduate school.
Our goal is to balance fundamentals with breadth
and supervised practice so that our graduates
are productive at the time they graduate but
ready and willing to change with the field.
We encourage Computer Science majors to take
a strong minor (or area concentration) in a
second area of interest. Some students choose
to double major. Majors in other disciplines
at IUP are also welcome to take Computer Science
courses for which they are qualified. |
