It is present in everything from healthcare, telecommunications, and entertainment, to transportation, education, and defense. Given the breadth and diversity of the computer science discipline, the Department of Computer Science offers a Computer Systems Concentration within the BS in Computer Science program. The Computer Systems Concentration represents a sub-specialty that provides more emphasis on understanding and designing computer hardware. The student continues to learn the fundamental areas of computer science, including programming, data structures, discrete math, algorithms, formal languages, architecture, and operating systems. Unlike traditional computer science, however, the student also studies low-level circuit analysis and high-level system design, and has the option to take additional hardware-oriented courses. The result is a unique blend of computer science and computer engineering.
