Bachelor of Computer Science<\/h2>\n

Computers and computer systems play a central role in business, communication, science, entertainment and medicine. Computer Science is an ever-changing discipline that studies the theory, design and implementation of computer applications and systems. You will learn to use computing and information technology to help solve the problems that we face in business, science and society today and those that we will face tomorrow.\"\"
\n\u201cThe best part of computer science is that you don\u2019t know what the next great idea will be. Someone could have a small idea that they think won\u2019t go very far but it turns out to be the next Facebook or Twitter.\u00a0 All you have to do is understand what you are trying to make and do it.\u201d – Forest Anderson<\/em><\/p>\n
