Welcome to the Department of Computer Science

The Department offers three baccalaureate programs of study: B.S. in Computer Science (major code 6100), ABET Accredited*; B.S. in Computer Science - Applied (major code 6101); and B.S. in Computer Science - Information Science (major code 6102). The three degrees reflect the diverse interests of our students.

Department has nine regular faculty members whose interests include artificial intelligence, data mining, robotics, Web applications, wireless networks, database systems, software engineering, computer security, bioinformatics, and programming language translators.

The Department serves more majors than any other department in the state, and more students graduate from the University of Central Oklahoma with degrees in Computer Science than from any other institution of higher education in Oklahoma. Faculty members in the Department are proud to be part of the number one department of Computer Science in the State of Oklahoma.

Department facilities include classrooms that are fully equipped with multimedia projectors and computers to make live demonstrations of computer science fundamentals. Students and faculty members have a personal computer laboratory and a LINUX server for their use to complete course assignments and perform research.
