BS in Computer Science

Computer Science at Trinity is a small, cohesive department offering a close working relationship between faculty and students, both in and out of the classroom. The department has been able to react quickly to computer technology's latest developments by introducing new languages and systems in both elementary and advanced classes. Students in computer science classes have numerous opportunities for developing Internet skills and have access to state-of-the-art workstations.

In classes, internships, and research projects, Computer Science majors design systems, solve problems, determine and address sophisticated communication needs and processes, and, in general, explore the world of computer science from the platform of a liberal arts education. In addition to being well educated in computing's practical and theoretical aspects, the Computer Science major at Trinity learns to be an effective communicator. In fact, this is a focus of the Computer Science Seminar for seniors. Verbal and written communication skills complement the mental discipline, and scientific expertise required of professionals in this field and serve graduates well in their chosen careers.

We’re a preeminent New England liberal arts college, but you’ll find us in an urban setting. We’re nearly 200 years old, but we provide an education that is both relevant and timeless. We were founded in the Episcopal tradition, but we’re rooted in principles of religious and academic freedom.

At Trinity College, we believe in transcending boundaries. Defying standard definitions. Staying true to ourselves and going our own way. We want you to do the same. This is where liberal arts meets the real world. If you want to become an engineer and minor in art, you can do that here. You can chase a career in politics and also cultivate a love of biology. Our mission is to help you pursue whatever path you choose and ensure that you gain real-world experience along the way.
