Computer scientists work on developing new designs forhardware and software. CS majors prepare for careers in software development or forgraduate studies in any area of computing. If you dream about designing space missionsat NASA, this can be your starting point!Computer security deals with major challenges experienced whenever computers are used in all sectorsof life: small businesses, large corporations, organizations, law enforcement, themilitary and the government. Computer security professionals analyze and counteractthreats to networks and computer systems, detect intrusions and assure privacy. Thiswork is highly valued and demand for professionals with such an expertise is expectedonly to grow. To work in computer security one needs a very rigorous preparation includingfundamentals of hardware and software.Information technology is concerned with forming and maintaining computing environments for businesses andorganizations. Information technicians chose and configure hardware and software,monitor performance and security of databases, web servers and computer networks.If you dream about providing computing support at the 21st century level, IT is foryou! IT technicians are sought in health care, financial or educational services,commerce and manufacturing. As our IT major requires only a small number of credits,it can be easily taken as a second major.Job OutlookAccording to recent job market analysis, computing jobs form one of the fastest-growingsegments and will remain in that position for a number of years. Because of securityconcerns, most current and future computing jobs will not be subject to outsourcing— they will remain in the country. Altogether, computer science, computer securityand information technology are excellent career choices for life.Which Major is Best for You?If you like programming, problem solving and math, choose the CS major. And if youwant to make it even stronger, add the Sec or IT Minor.If you like problem solving and math, choose the Sec major. And if you want to makeit even stronger, add the CS or IT Minor.If you like problem solving or are not sure what major to choose, start with the ITmajor — it requires a smaller number of credits and gives you flexible options:You can later switch to CS or Sec MajorIf you decide to build more strength in IT, you can add Sec or CS MinorYou can add a second major. The 40 credits devoted to IT B.A. should still be quiteeasy to complete. But if you wish, you can replace the IT major with a minor. Yourknowledge and skills in IT will nicely complement those of another area and will behighly marketable when you start looking for a job.Because of an overlap in requirements for CS, Sec and IT majors, it is easy to switchafter one semester from one major to another.In the case of computing disciplines, a B.S. (Bachelor of Science) degree is morerespected than a B.A. (Bachelor of Arts); a B.A. version of a computing major is typicallyused only as a second major.Double majors are encouraged, but you cannot choose two of the CS, Sec and IT majors,because they share many courses.To strengthen a computing major, add a minor in another area of computing. In thecase of minors in IT, CS or Sec, 6–7 credits can be counted towards both the majorand the minor, so instead of taking 18–22 credits for the minor, you need only 12–15.Credits Required for Majors and MinorsAll require 33 general education credits in addition to credits toward the major.Computing majors:CS major (B.S. — 58 cr., and B.A. — 49 cr.)Sec major (B.S. — 56 cr.)IT major (B.S. — 52 cr., and B.A. — 40 cr.)Computing minors:CS minor (add 12 cr. to the major)Sec minor (add 15 cr. to the major)IT minor (add 12 cr. to the major)Interdisciplinary minors related to computing:Bioinformatics minor for computer science students (add 18–21 cr. to the major)Robotics minor — physics emphasis (add 12–19 cr. to the major)Web design and programming minor (add 12–18 cr. to the major)Some of our students choose a double major, or a major and a minor, or even a majorand two minors; they enroll in the honors program or write a thesis for an advancedhonors project. They also register as teaching assistants at our department or workas tutors in the Learning Center. We encourage you to consider right from the starthow you can distinguish yourself.
