Bachelor's Degree
The Bachelor of Science (BS) degree in Computer Science is a four year degree. It is intended
for students who want to be prepared for careers in software design, analysis, and implementation at
leading-edge companies.
It helps when learning the requirements for the BS degree in computer science to understand the
structure of the University. A University is comprised of a number of Colleges which focus on
general subject areas. MSU has Colleges of Agriculture, Arts and Architecture, Business,
Education and Human Development, Engineering, Letters and Science, and Nursing. Colleges are
generally made up of Departments that handle a specific discipline related to the mission of the
College of which they are a part. The Computer Science Department is housed in the College of
Engineering.
In order to earn a degree in Computer Science, then, students must satisfy the three entities of the
University of which the Department of Computer Science is a part. In addition, there are some
requirements for earning a BS in Computer Science that are mandated by the agency (ABET) that
accredits the Computer Science program.
Therefore, students earning a BS degree in Computer Science must meet the requirements of
- the Department of Computer Science
- the College of Engineering
- the University
- ABET
