B.A. degree in computer science with a concentration in business
Objectives
Graduates from the B. A. and B. S. computer science degree programs at LaGrange College should be able to do each of the following:
|
Pursue in-depth training in one or more application areas or further education in computer science. |
|
Determine whether or not they have written a reasonably efficient and well-organized program. |
|
Know which general types of problems are amenable to computer solution and the various tools necessary for solving such problems. |
|
Assess the implications of work performed either as an individual or as a member of a team. |
