The Bachelor of Science in Information Technology prepares students with practical, hands-on expertise to solve everyday computing problems. This program is accredited by the Computing Accreditation Commission of ABET. High-achieving students can apply for the ACE program (Accelerated Computing Engagement) program which is a pathway to earning a Bachelor's in Information Technology in three years and includes several perks including a direct opportunity for an internship experience.
The curriculum includes theoretical computer science topics and enough mathematics for graduates to successfully converse with other computing professionals. However, this concentration focuses much more on the applications of computer science, and as such does not require as many higher mathematics courses as the other concentrations. As part of this applied focus, students in this concentration satisfy an application area component, a series of electives designed to enable a deeper study of one particular computing application.
