Joseph Ki-Zerbo University


Department of Computer Science

The Computer Science Program prepares students for careers in computer science through learning based on practice and grounded in theory. Students learn how to analyze, design, build, test, and deploy computer-based systems by making technical trade-offs between performance, scalability, availability, reliability, security, maintainability, cost and societal impact. Marshall’s computing facilities are state-of-the-art and readily available to students.

Supporting the mission of the University to provide innovative undergraduate and graduate education that contributes to the development of society and the individual. The Computer Science Program is committed to our alumni who, within a few years of their graduation, are expected to:
1) be employed in fields of Computer Science
2) engage in life-long learning and professional development through self-study, continuing education or graduate and professional studies
3) become effective communicators, collaborators and innovators.
4) practice professional ethics with social responsibility addressing social, technical and business challenges.

The program exposes students to a range of other disciplines, such as the natural sciences, social sciences, economics, and business so they gain an understanding of the real world scenarios. Theoretical courses are supported by rigorous laboratory tasks.
