Computer Science Program
Undergraduate Computer Science Program Mission Statement
To prepare intellectual, professional, and ethical graduates capable of meeting challenges
in the field of computer science; and to coordinate with other parts of the university to
facilitate the effective use of educational resources, including courses.
Program Outcomes
The computer science curriculum is designed to prepare students to enter the rapidly
expanding computer field. It is based upon the Institute of Electrical and
Electronic Engineer Computer Society and the Association for Computing Machinery
recommendations for curricula and courses. The four-year undergraduate curriculum
in computer science includes a sound preparation in science, mathematics, English,
statistics and computing. Students majoring in computer science at Texas A&M will
take a 12-hour area of concentration in another department. Electives are available
in the areas of: algorithms, languages and computability, software systems, networking,
computer systems and architecture, artificial intelligence and cognitive modeling,
vision, graphics and robotics and computational science and engineering. Advanced
undergraduates may take graduate courses in these areas. Learn more about program outcomes
