Who We Are
Since the early 1980s, NSU's College of Computing and Engineering has been giving our students an unfair advantage in their careers. We were a pioneer in creating the distance learning that is known today as online/virtual education. So computing and technology is in our DNA, literally.
We understood early on that flexibility was paramount in helping students earn their degrees – not everyone can take time out of their lives to attend class on campus. And now:
- Our alumni work at Fortune 500 organizations, various federal and government agencies and universities around the world.
- All our classes are taught only by experienced faculty members with doctoral degrees from accredited institutions.
- The Bachelor of Science in Computer Science program is accredited by the Computing Accreditation Commission (CAC) of the Accreditation Board for Engineering and Technology (ABET).
- We focus on degree programs that prepare you for careers listed by U.S. News & World Report 100 Best Jobs in 2021.
- The National Security Agency (NSA) and its affiliated federal agencies have designated NSU as a National Center of Academic Excellence in Information Assurance and Cyber Defense Education and have certified that NSU’s curriculum in cybersecurity meets or exceeds the requirements and standards expected of a leader in cybersecurity education. Among the first in Florida to be designated in 2005.
