The Department of Computer Science is a place that brings motivated students, professors, and professionals together. We train high-quality students to become problem solvers. Our majors are active and engaged in campus life. Students clubs such as Computer Science Club and Engineering Club are among the most active on campus. This allows us to provide exceptional future prospects to all those who study with us or collaborate with us.
The College of Sciences offers students a scientific education to meet the needs of the 21st century, allowing them to compete for a variety of careers in an increasingly complex and evolving world.
Our advisors are here to help. Proper advising will serve to efficiently guide you through all the necessary steps towards your academic goals. The combination of a Computer Science major and Mathematics minor makes students very attractive to employers.
The department offers a undergraduate Computer Science major. We also offer two master degree programs: 1) Computer Science, and 2) Computer Information Systems and Cyber Security.
There are several undergraduate scholarships and graduate assistantships available to students majoring in Computer Science, and Computer Information Systems & Cyber Security.
Our department hosts the following events: research colloquia, math/CS/engineering club activities, Southern Regional Algebra Conference (SRAC), Sonia Kovalevsky Mathematics Day.
Our faculty conduct various types of research in the areas of computing sciences. Students have opportunities to participate in research projects. Please check out the individual listings of each faculty member to learn more about their specific research areas.
We welcome our undergraduate and graduate international students to the AUM campus! Please know, there are strict guidelines regarding visa requirements and class attendance in the United States.
