School of Computing

One School. Multiple Pathways. Unlimited Possibilities.

The Georgia Southern School of Computing brings together Computer Science, Software Engineering and Information Technology in one collaborative academic community.

Students benefit from multiple pathways, shared expertise and opportunities to explore computing from foundational theory to real-world application. Undergraduate, graduate and doctoral programs prepare students to create software, analyze data, secure systems, manage technology and develop intelligent solutions.

Choose Your Pathway

Some graduates will create new algorithms and intelligent systems. Others will build the software, networks, databases and secure infrastructure that make innovation possible.

Students can also build expertise in cybersecurity, data science, information management, big data and analytics, software security, and network and data center management.

At Georgia Southern, every student can find a pathway to shape the future of computing.

Information Technology

Apply, integrate, manage and secure organizational technologies, including networks, databases, cloud systems, web and mobile applications, and data centers.

Shape the Future with AI & Data

Artificial intelligence depends on more than algorithms. Successful AI systems require software, high-quality data, secure infrastructure and responsible deployment.

By connecting computer science, software engineering and information technology, the School prepares students to:

  • Develop and evaluate AI and machine learning models
  • Analyze and visualize complex data
  • Build intelligent software applications
  • Secure AI systems and sensitive information
  • Deploy AI responsibly across organizations and communities

Build Your Experience 

Students gain practical experience, build professional connections and apply their knowledge to meaningful problems. Learning extends beyond the classroom through:

  • Internships and cooperative education
  • Industry-sponsored projects and capstones
  • Undergraduate and graduate research
  • Collaborative laboratories
  • Student organizations and competitions
  • Partnerships with businesses, government and community organizations
