Ability to use current programming languages such that the student produces useful algorithms that solve mathematical, graphical and other structures.
Ability to reason and think in abstract terms, such as object orientation in order to build proper algorithms.
Ability to communicate the fundamentals of computer science both in written form by applying software engineering techniques and verbal forms.
Ability to cross disciplinary lines to abstract and apply CS based solutions in different disciplines.
Facility with the fundamental and mathematical constructions of Information Science, the essential foundation of the discipline.
Understanding of basic computer hardware architecture and be able to design fundamental logic circuits.
B.S. students will be prepared to discuss more complex computer based solutions to physical and mathematical problems as they relate to engineering and scientific disciplines.
