The CIS department offers three majors: Computer Science, Computer Systems Management, and Computer and Information Technology with concentrations in Application Development and Interactive Application Design.

The program offers courses designed to prepare students for careers in computer science and related fields. Students take a variety of courses that introduce them to programming concepts, data structures, computer algorithms, computer architecture, networking, and cyber security.
