» Program Overview

The computer has become this century’s version of the wheel; a piece of technology so ubiquitous and essential that nearly every other consequential human endeavor relies upon its effective use. Computer scientists turn this miraculous machine’s potential into power. Beginning with a study of the design and development of automated computation and information processing systems, they incorporate theoretical mathematics, logic, and engineering to improve hardware and software, conceive new applications, explore artificial intelligence, and push the boundaries of automation.
