Program Description
Computer science deals with the theoretical foundations of information and computation, and with practical techniques for their implementation and application. Virtually every discipline – practical, theoretical or creative – is experiencing the influence of computers. The ever-increasing dependence on computer technology in our daily lives presents rich opportunities for those interested in the design of new applications and systems. Every career can benefit from a deeper understanding of computing. The technology skills a major in computer science helps develop will make each student indispensable and relevant no matter their position. Memorial University offers individual courses and full programs so any student can develop their computer skills and interest regardless of their career trajectory. Memorial’s Co-operative Internship in Computer Science (CICS) provides an opportunity for Students to obtain rewarding placements in computer industries. The internship program includes a paid placement of eight to 16 months so they can explore career options and develop workplace skills at the same time.
