Programming You for a Successful Career
With a near-100% graduate placement rate, Taylor’s Computer Science and Engineering Department (CSE) hosts one of the premier Computer Science programs in Indiana. The department fosters a Christian environment while teaching rigorous courses that allow students to gain an in-depth knowledge of computer science and technology. Each of our dedicated Christian faculty members specializes in a specific area of Computer Science and takes a personal interest in their students’ education and growth.
With an almost 100% success rate, Taylor students graduate with connections to the job market, expertise in many areas, and skills that are ready to adapt to a rapidly-changing tech landscape.
Work on real-world projects developing software with peers for the space, defense, and missions’ community, and participate in study abroad opportunities in England, Asia, South Korea, and other international locations.
On-Campus Events
Join the CSE community for fun and challenging events like Game Jam, a themed competition where students have 24 hours to plan, design graphics, and build code for video games.
Internships
Apply what you’ve learned to the computer science industry, software start-ups, corporations, and missionary organizations. Our interns receive great reviews from employers who cite their technical knowledge, interpersonal skills, and sense of responsibility. Many internships turn into full-time employment opportunities upon graduation.
Missions & Community Service
In partnership with the Taylor Center for Missions Computing, CSE students can use and develop their computing skills while serving the Kingdom on discipline-focused J-term trips. CSE and Systems students also partner with Business as Mission (BAM) organizations and fulfill technology needs.
CSE supports the local community by contributing computers, network equipment, and the expertise of faculty and students to schools like The King’s Academy (a nearby Christian academy for K-12 students) and NearSpace Education, a local science and space non-profit.
