Bachelor of Science

Assessment

The Computer Science Department assesses all students for communication skills and for knowledge of computer science. Assessment is intended to help students in their academic planning and their development as computer scientists.

The process begins in CSC 305 Entrance Assessment, which must be taken the first semester of enrollment as an Information Systems Security major. The entrance assessment is an examination of the student’s knowledge of the core areas of computer science. The process concludes with CSC 405 Exit Assessment, which must be taken the final semester before graduation. The exit assessment helps students assess their progress and helps the faculty revise the curriculum.

Departmental Goals and Objectives

In the Bachelor of Science in Information Systems Security, housed in the Department of Computer Science, students will learn the fundamentals of information security including design and implementation of secure systems, security assessment, and computer security ethics. Students will utilize a variety of cutting edge technologies and labs in many hands-on learning activities.

Graduates of the B.S. in Information Systems Security program will have the necessary skill set to enter into security-centric careers in network and computer administration, system analysis, computer support, and the like. In addition, students will be equipped to enter into related graduate level programs in Computer Science.

Students have access to an outstanding variety of computing systems including a virtual server farm, a parallel processing cluster, and a hands-on network laboratory.

The UIS Computer Science Department is a Cisco Regional Networking Academy, serving as the instruction center for local academies at high schools, career centers, community colleges, and universities in central Illinois.

The Computer Science Department has been designated as a National Center of Academic Excellence in Cyber Defense Education. The National Security Agency (NSA) and the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) jointly sponsor the National Centers of Academic Excellence in Cyber Defense Education Program. The goal of this program is to reduce vulnerability in our national information infrastructure by promoting higher education and research in IA and producing a growing number of professionals with IA expertise in various disciplines.

Computer laboratories are open evenings and weekends; some systems are available 24 hours a day. On-campus students have high-speed, wired and wireless internet access. The virtual server farm hosts over 2,200 virtual machines that our online and on-campus students leverage to gain a better understanding of material presented in classes.
