Overview
Following the Hampton tradition, the Computer Science department has created a friendly environment, with low student/faculty ration and a curriculum that can be adapted to individual needs. Experimental research programs, strong faculty commitment to teach and research, and excellent computing facilities, yield to a fertile environment in which to get an advanced degree. For those without a strong background in computer science, a set of bridge courses provide the necessary background for regular admission to the MS program. Graduates of the program have been actively recruited and hired by major software and hardware companies for positions in software development, testing and marketing.
Program Highlights
The Computer Science program of Hampton University allows each student to obtain a broad background in areas of Programming Languages, Operating Systems, Theory of Computation, Software Engineering and Artificial Intelligence. Six required core courses are taught in these areas. Six elective courses are taken to broaden and deepen the experience, followed by a comprehensive examination. For the students interested in conducting a research project, a thesis may be substituted for one course and the thesis defense for the comprehensive examination.
