Department
The CS department at Union has created a distinctive curriculum which makes exposure to computing possible for students from across the entire campus. We offer six theme-based introductory courses and welcome CS majors and minors, as well as students from other fields who are interested in enhancing their studies with computation.For more information, including our programs with other departments, check the Department and For Students links, as well as the Department Home Page.
