Computer Science, in its essence, can be thought of as problem solving. Computer scientists must be adept at modeling and analyzing problems and then designing and developing solutions. Computer science has a wide range of specialties including computer architecture, software systems, graphics, artificial intelligence, database systems, security and many others.
In the Information Age, enormous amounts of data are generated every day in a range of areas, including social media, search engines, insurance companies, healthcare organizations, hospitals, defense, and retail. Data science is now a rapidly growing, high-paying field.
Informatics is the understanding the impact of technology and information on people, the development of new uses for technology, and the application of information technology in the context of another field. There are various concentrations/cognates available within Informatics degree.

Our Master of Science in Applied Mathematics and Computer Science is a joint program with the Department of Mathematics. It has three tracks: a Computer Science track, an Applied Mathematics track, and an Integrated track that combines the first two tracks.
We also provide a graduate certificate that provides the necessary technical expertise to those who are already in management positions or those who are considering management positions in the future. Candidates for this certificate program must have a bachelor’s degree prior to enrolling in the program.
