太阳2注册平台 计算机科学

Every student at Harvey Mudd College takes at least one CS course, so our department aims to provide a welcoming environment for all. Non-majors will get to see the breadth of the discipline while learning valuable skills they can apply for their own purposes, and our majors go even broader and deeper into the theory and practice of computing. 

Below we elaborate on the CS department’s goals and philosophy and give examples of how we put these into practice.
