Course Overview

Studying Computer Science will take you from learning practical computing skills in programming, data management, hardware, and networking to understanding and developing software solutions for many of the new challenges facing today’s computer-dominated world, such as safe online shopping, computer graphics, mobile app development, and artificial intelligence.
