Department of
Computer Science

As a member of the School of Honors, I have been given the opportunity and freedom to work on exciting and fulfilling research projects to earn honors credit for my computer science courses. The experience I have gained at SFA has been immeasurable and strengthened my confidence for the future.

My days at SFA weren't just textbooks and tests. My SFA Help Desk internship is where I discovered my passion for technology, my love for working with people and the grit to tackle any challenge. Today, I'm proud to be an Associate Software Engineer at Optomi Professional Services, a testament to the invaluable skills and real-world experience I gained at SFA. So, to all the aspiring techs out there, don’t underestimate the power of starting small and getting involved. Go Lumberjacks!

Being involved at the STEM Research and Learning Center has been an amazing experience! As a student assistant, I have met amazing staff and enjoyed engaging with our local community. My classes have allowed me to gain in-depth knowledge of the components that make up IT infrastructure. The department’s internship program helped me grow in my understanding of what to expect as an IT professional in the business world. I feel prepared for everything going forward thanks to the internship, my service as an assistant, and the coursework taught within a positive learning environment.

The support of this program has granted me so many opportunities to learn and get involved. My one-on-one conversations with professors here have equipped me with the skills needed to help others learn computer science through the STEM Research and Learning Center and the Academic Assistance and Resource Center here at SFA. As a part of my coursework, I've learned skills necessary to pursue my own love of programming through the art of game design, as well as scratch that itch for problem-solving we all have as programmers.
