Bacharelado em Ciência da Computação

We want to break away from the traditional definition of computer science. It doesn’t matter if a topic “belongs” to computer science, information technology, software engineering, or information systems—real-world problems do not fit nicely into these boxes. The Computer Science program will teach you to combine technological know-how, problem domain knowledge, teamwork, and communication skills to solve complex real-world problems.

Academic Opportunities

Merck & Company Partnership The next generation of health IT professionals needs an important combination of technical skills and an understanding of how to use health data appropriately. This unique partnership between Merck & Company and Moravian University gives students an opportunity to develop these abilities while they make contributions to Merck initiatives. Merck employees and Moravian University students have made significant contributions to open-source projects through senior capstones, summer SOAR projects, internships, and co-ops.

3D Printing Team The Moravian University 3D Printing Team maintains the fleet of 3D printers for the campus and creates custom devices for groups and individuals across campus, from chemistry to nursing, from rehabilitation sciences to maintenance. We also work with the community, including St. Luke’s Hospital during the pandemic and Good Shepherd Rehabilitation Network to create assistive devices.

Research Computer science majors are strongly encouraged to undertake an Honors Project and/or a SOAR Research Project. These research projects are often combined with the student’s major or minor.

Study Abroad Sophomore year is the perfect time for an optional short-term study abroad opportunity, or, as Moravian likes to call it, a “Global Greyhound Trip.” The Elevate experience includes a trip to one of our featured destinations, like the Czech Republic or Costa Rica, at no extra cost to students!

Moravian University has deep roots and a record of success longer than that of our nation. The iconic Moravian star is engraved in our history and is present everywhere you turn. Moravian’s feel is entwined with that of Bethlehem’s, carrying both the resilience of its steel town lore and the lightness of the window candles that glow each night in Moravian tradition.

Bethlehem is so regarded for its history that it’s been added to the UNESCO World Heritage Site shortlist, hoping to join such historic sites as Independence Hall, the Statue of Liberty, and the pyramids of Egypt.

Location

Located along the east coast of the United States, Moravian calls Bethlehem, Pennsylvania home. In this bustling small town you’ll find yourself just a short drive away from major cities, like Philadelphia, New York City, and Washington, D.C. Just imagine all the weekend trips and new adventures! But don’t worry, there’s plenty to do right in the Lehigh Valley too. Whether you’re attending one of the best music festivals in North America (Musikfest) or enjoying a baseball game at Coca Cola Stadium, there’s never a dull moment in Bethlehem, PA.

The Bethlehem community is always very welcoming of Moravian students and often partners with the University to offer internships, hands-on learning opportunities, and free events.

Weather

Pennsylvania’s Lehigh Valley experiences all four seasons to the fullest. Fall brings crisp sweater-weather and colorful leaves. Winter coats our campus with snow. Spring offers rain showers and blooming flowers. And summer is sunny and warm. Every season brings a little something different to Bethlehem and we love it!
