Within the context of social responsibility, Regis University’s B.S. in Computer Science (CS) degree exposes students to a broad balance of theory and practice. An extensive focus on the theoretical foundations, possibilities, and limitations of computation provides students with the ability to model and craft efficient computational solutions to problems. As graduates are expected to be proficient software developers, the CS degree also provides the greatest breadth and depth of experience related to software development, which includes the ability to utilize multiple programming languages, paradigms, and platforms when implementing the computational solutions they design.

The B.S. in Computer Science degree (accelerated format) is accredited by the Computing Accreditation Commission of ABET, a prestigious nonprofit accreditation body. Regis University’s College of Computer & Information Sciences is the only institution in the country whose Bachelor of Science in Computer Science degree is both accredited by ABET and also can be earned completely online.

Upon successful completion of this program, the graduate will be able to:

- Apply knowledge of computing and mathematics appropriate to the computing field.

- Analyze a problem and define the computing requirements appropriate to its solution.

- Design, implement, and evaluate a computer-based system, process, component, or program to meet desired needs.

- Identifies, collaborates effectively, and shares information with team members to set and meet team performance goals.

- Understand professional, ethical, legal, and social issues and responsibilities relevant to the computing field.

- Communicate with different stakeholders using effective communication and decision-making skills.

- Analyze the local and global impact of computing on individuals, organizations, and society.

- Maintain technical competency in the face of rapid changes in the computing.

- Use current techniques, skills and tools necessary to the computing practice.

- Apply mathematical foundations, algorithmic principles, and computer science theories and development principles in the modeling and design of computer-based systems demonstrating comprehension of the tradeoffs involved in design choices and the construction of software systems of varying complexity.
