  • Small classes and close personal interactions with faculty assure that every student receives the attention he or she needs to attain whatever they want.
  • With two majors -- computer science and information science -- and a 3/2 engineering program with Columbia University, our program is incredibly rich and diversified for a liberal arts college.
  • Hartwick has a fantastic assortment of courses in other departments you can use to enrich your computer major.
  • The CISC Clubhouse has a tremendous assortment of high end computers, all designed and built by students.
  • Internships, and one-on-one independent and directed studies are strongly encouraged. We strongly believe in practical experience in our courses and letting our students learn thing they want to learn.
