Redesigned and reintroduced into the Newberry College curriculum, the Computer Science major is offered online through a partnership with RIZE Education. This allows for virtual instruction from experts in the field of Computer Science while you attend Newberry and fulfill your other graduation requirements in a traditional environment.
