Computer Studies Department
Work in the technology sector with a degree in computer science or computer information systems.
If you enjoy working with computers, problem solving or figuring out how things work, then you will enjoy the challenge of the Computer Studies program. Whether you want to author your own software, build your own computers and networks, implement security policies, or manage a business network, Emmaus can help you get there.
Even in the area of technology, the Bible remains central at Emmaus. For example, the ethics taught in our computer security courses have their foundation in the truths of scripture. Our courses and tracks are relevant to today's technology needs and are constantly being improved and refined to keep up with the dynamic world of computer technology. Furthermore, most courses have less than 10 students which enables the instructor to tailor each class to the students' needs including one-on-one coaching.
The Computer Studies department strives to equip students with the tools they need to succeed in the growing yet competitive technology job market. We start by providing the student with a solid foundation in programming, hardware, networking, security, operating systems, and software upon which the student can build skills in an area that interests them. Through hands on, practical coursework the student will acquire the skills they need to be effective wherever they go. Our goal is to provide a breadth of experience to each of our students in order to make them versatile candidates while still giving them depth of skill and confidence in their abilities.
The Computer Studies program can prepare you for a variety of jobs in the technology sector, including:
