Springfield College study for finals in the Learning Commons

Computing is part of everything we do—from health and medicine to business and education, from analysis, research, and engineering to art, design, and entertainment. In fact, the computer information and research scientists occupation is expected to grow 21%, faster than average, between now and 2031, according to the U.S. Department of Labor. That’s why the Springfield College Computer Sciences/English major offers courses that have direct relevance and importance across industries, allowing you to achieve your career goals. 

The computer science curriculum provides students with advanced skills that are sought after by employers, such as database skills, multi-platform programming development skills, analytical skills, and good, basic business intelligence, while the English curriculum provides students with further ability to develop their skills and techniques in the communicative arts.

“When I saw that Springfield College has a program specifically designed for Computer Science/English as a pair, I knew I had to apply. It’s a combination that I knew would equip me with a unique and powerful skill set that would prepare me for almost any career path I wanted to take.” James Uyar, Class of 2024
