What it isComputer Science at Windsor covers programming, systems design, and problem-solving with technology. You can specialize in areas like artificial intelligence, game development, animation, or software engineering depending on your degree choice. The program includes optional co-op work terms, letting you gain industry experience alongside your studies — a fit if you want hands-on learning and want to test career paths before graduating.You study how to design and build software and computer systems, with options to specialize in game development. The co-op requirement means you complete paid work terms at tech companies alongside your classroom learning, giving you real industry experience before graduation. This program suits students who want hands-on technical training and the chance to build a professional network early in their degree.You study how to design and build video games, combining computer science with creative and artistic skills. Unlike a straight computer science degree, this program teaches both the technical coding side and the creative tools and design methods used in game development. It suits people who want to work in the games industry but need solid programming foundations as much as they need artistic or design ability.
