Bacharelado em Ciência da Computação

Do you enjoy solving problems or designing and making things? Do you want to learn how things work? Do you like to express your ideas carefully and precisely? Do you want to help people by creating (or critiquing) new technologies? If so, Computer Science might be the major for you!

Programming is challenging, creative, and collaborative. That said, computer science is more than just programming! For example, some computer scientists seek to prove that programs are correct (harder than it sounds!) or explore computing's social implications. Computational thinking lets us ask new questions and seek new answers in a wide range of fields, such as art, literature, biology, economics, and sociology. Computing technology is increasingly pervasive throughout society; understanding computation may give you a unique and valuable perspective in fields such as business, law, politics, or philosophy. Computer scientists with a liberal arts background are noted for their strong communication skills and their inclination to think about computational problems in a broad social context.

An education from Whitman College is special. As a small residential liberal arts college in Walla Walla, Washington, Whitman is rooted in the traditional liberal arts values like critical thought and academic rigor. But at our foundation is also a belief in the value of community and the power of relationships. Our graduates are scholars, but also explorers, advocates, and scientists. They climb mountains, travel to far-off corners, and give voice to others. They care about the community and aim to become citizens of the world.
