Because software development and computer science are inherently
interdisciplinary, collaborative efforts, Evergreen's innovative approach to
education is well matched to the study of computer science. By bringing
together people who understand computing, technology, how people use
technology, and the application area, Evergreen offers a variety of ways to
study computing, from computer science programs that blend theory and
practice to programs that emphasize other disciplines but make extensive use
of computing. The college's unique CS curriculum structure includes full
time studies taught by a faculty team, usually continuing from September to
June. 

In addition to traditional topics such as data structures, architecture,
databases, operating systems, theory of computation, digital logic, and
programming languages, there are opportunities for interdisciplinary work;
for example, Data and Information. Other study areas include computer games,
simulation, and modeling. Offerings range from introductory to advanced, and
theoretical to project-based. See Curriculum for more information.

Evergreen also offers independent study and group and individual projects.
Students are encouraged to present their work at professional conferences,
where several have won awards. You can see examples of projects at
scidb.evergreen.edu/sos_spring/Projects/, www.evenshadestudios.com, or
www.wabdo.com/metaphor/. Our alumni have gone on to prominent positions in
software, research, gaming, other technology-based businesses, and
government.
