Degree to meet demands of digital economy growth

Computer science includes everything from the math that underlies computation to the design of new algorithms, software and programming languages. According to the Bureau of Labor Statistics, computer science occupations will make up two-thirds of all projected new jobs in STEM fields due to continued growth in the digital economy.

Whether you want to be a computer scientist or a software engineer, you’ll be prepared to solve problems with technology. Our cutting-edge courses and small class sizes will prepare you for computational careers. You’ll learn from hands-on coding experiences with expert faculty, who are engaged teachers and active researchers. You can earn academic credit for summer internships. As a senior, you will have the option to pursue a research project in depth, working directly with your faculty mentor.

We make it seamless for you to double or even triple major in computer science, mathematics or physics. Degrees in economics, finance, chemistry and earth & environmental sciences also pair well with computer science. With our 3+2 dual-degree engineering option, you can earn dual degrees: a bachelor’s degree in computer science from Susquehanna and an engineering degree from an ABET-accredited partner university.
