The Department offers the BS and BA degrees in computer science and the certificate program at the undergraduate level. At the graduate level, the department offers the MS degree in computer science and the MS degree in software engineering. We are in the process of establishing a PhD degree program. Our BS degree program is ABET-accredited. Our classes are taught by faculty members who are accessible, nurturing, and eager to engage students in learning and research. Our students have access to an array of hardware, system software, and applications in our first-class computing laboratories.

The Department currently has 19 tenured and tenure-track faculty actively pursuing research in artificial intelligence, computer communication and networking, computer secuity, database and information systems, distributed and parallel computing, human computer interaction, image retrieval, multimedia computing, sensor networks, and software engineering. Our faculty's research has been supported by federal agencies and industry such as NSF, NIST, DoD, DoE, PNNL, LLNL, Semiconductor Research Consortium, IBM, Intel, NVidia, and Emerson. Our faculty have obtained prestigious awards like NSF CAREER award and IBM Faculty Fellowship. We also engage other academic units on campus and local industry in a variety of research collaborations.
