Are you creative? Do you embrace challenges? Do you want a great job? Do you hope to make a positive difference in the world? If the answer to any of these questions is yes, welcome to Computer Science at Iona. Whether your interest is in web design or artificial intelligence, gaming technology or the next iPhone app, you?ll gain the knowledge and skills required to succeed in one of today?s most exciting and wide-open fields. Our students work closely with full-time faculty who are active researchers and committed teachers. Because class sizes are small, professors get to know every student in the program and can provide the kind of individualized attention, research opportunities and lasting connections you won?t find in larger schools. Our learning environment is challenging and supportive, with dedicated laboratory facilities that give you access to all of the technology you need. Majoring in Computer Science: Regardless of the degree path that you might take, computer science offers an excellent opportunity to experience an extensively diverse field. Rapidly developing computer technologies require employers to look for professionals with a broad background and range of skills: analytical thinking, problem-solving expertise, technical knowledge, as well as good communication and interpersonal skills. The U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics projects occupations in computing to be among the fastest growing over the next decade.
