Computer Science

About the Major

Computer Science is the study of algorithmic processes: their theory, analysis, design, efficiency, implementation, and application. While implementation is an important aspect of Computer Science, programming is not the central goal of the Computer Science discipline. And, although applications are the touchstone of the computer, Computer Science is not limited to learning applications. Computer Science is a rapidly evolving discipline. The major reflects this by providing a conceptual framework which equips students for a lifetime of learning and a career within the discipline. The program is strengthened by its participation in the cooperative Mathematical Sciences program with Bethel College.

Hot Career Prospects

Even in times of economic recession, the top four “fastest growing industries” are in the computer/information systems fields, based on wages, career opportunities and employment growth projections though 2012 [www.bls.gov]. The growth rate is reported to be as high as 76% in some states.

“The CS program at Tabor deserves all the credit for providing me with the appropriate foundation to feel competent the instant I started my current job as a software engineer.” – Scott Friesen (g’04)
