Bachelor of Science [B.S] [Computer Science] From Northeastern State University

What distinguishes Computer Science from other computer disciplines such as Computer Technology, Information Systems, and Computer Engineering?

ACM describes computer science as "the range from theory through programming to cutting-edge development of computing solutions. Computer science offers a foundation that permits you to adapt to new technologies and new ideas."

The work of computer scientists falls into three categories:

• Designing and building software
• Developing effective ways to solve computing problems, such as storing information in databases, sending data over networks or providing new approaches to security problems
• Devising new and better ways of using computers and addressing particular challenges in areas such as robotics, computer vision, or digital forensics (although these specializations are not available in all computer science programs)
