| Welcome to the Department of Computer Science at Millsaps College!
Millsaps offers a bachelors degree in computer science in two concentrations:
computer science and computer information systems. We offer a challenging
program that combines fundamental computer science with cutting-edge
industry applications.
Our course offerings include artificial intelligence, computer
graphics, database, digital media programming, rapid-application
development, and software engineering. Some featured projects
include web-access for Oracle databases, game programming, and
blue-screen special effects compositing. Our faculty is dedicated to undergraduate teaching, advising,
and research. All of our classes feature sizes of twenty or fewer
students, numerous active-learning in-class exercises often done
in pairs or small groups, and challenging course work and high
academic standards. All of our graduates complete a senior project
in an area of their choice. Examples of recent projects include
a web-based database to coordinate volunteers for non-profit
agencies, on-line course schedule database, and a virtual campus
tour. Our graduates regularly find success in landing industry jobs
and placement with funding for graduate studies. Please browse our web site; we hope that it grabs your interest!
