The BS in Computing Technology program is designed for those interested in a broad and deep computing education but without some traditional advanced courses, those who want to focus more on technologies and to transition to fulfilling careers. Elective courses can be grouped into one of the available certificates to solidify specialization. Graduating seniors can find in-demand careers in many related areas such as cybersecurity, networks, Internet programming, software and mobile apps development, data science, AI, graphics, or pursue additional graduate studies.
The program can be completed part-time or full-time. While we do not currently offer a complete online program option, many courses can be completed online, with many others arranged to be completed online. Consult with a faculty advisor for more details.
This program may transfer a limited number of credit hours from technology-based training in community colleges and technical schools, consult with a faculty advisor.
Students must also satisfy all UMSL requirements for a BS degree. In addition to university scholarships, the department awards merit-based scholarships.
