The Computer Science-Mathematics (BA/BS) major prepares students for a broad variety of careers and for graduate study. Work in computer science includes software development and design, research in solving problems in computing (including data storage, networking, retrieval, organization, validation, and so on), and research into new ways of using computing devices (computer vision, robotics, machine learning, accessibility studies, etc.). Computer science is one of the most rapidly expanding and changing fields of scientific inquiry. Preparation for work in this field is thus inherently interdisciplinary, requiring a strong mathematical background. The problem-solving capabilities acquired in the Computer Science-Mathematics major are of wide utility in many fields of study, including careers directly and not directly connected to computer science.
The College of Idaho provided Annika Thomas ’19, who completed a dual degree in engineering, the perfect path to change her story from one of dreaming of the science behind the satellites she saw in the sky as a child, to becoming the lead designer on a cube satellite while pursuing her Ph.D. at MIT.
I chose The College of Idaho because I was really drawn to the small, tight-knit community. I grew up in a large city for most of my life, so I wanted to be in a place where I could get to know my professors and classmates personally, and where I wouldn’t feel like just another face in the crowd. The idea of being part of a supportive and closes community was really important to me, and The College of Idaho felt like the perfect fit.
