If you are interested in computing, but are unsure of the differences among possible programs of study and the associated careers, you may wish to browse the pages provided by the Association for Computing Machinery (ACM) that describe these different degree programs. If nothing else, this information may help you in formulating questions that you may wish to address to representatives of the different departments (at other universities, as well!) Click on Computing Careers to view these pages.
The rest of this page will evolve over time as I decide to include certain pictures, movie clips, and other information as the mood strikes me. I'll start with a tour of the department. I appreciate the time you spent on these pages and hope that you will give serious consideration to majoring in Computer Science at The University of Akron.
Thank you,
Dr. Wolfgang Pelz
Professor and Department Chair
Department of Computer Science
