The primary mission of the Computer Science Department is teaching undergraduate and graduate students of the College of Charleston/University of Charleston. The Department aims to provide students with the necessary conceptual tools for life-long learning through exposure to a well-designed, up-to-date curriculum. Emphasis is placed on merging a strong theoretical foundation in the various sub-fields of Computer Science with a familiarity with current methodologies and tools. The Department actively supports faculty development in teaching and scholarship. This allows Computer Science faculty to stay current in and contribute to the discipline, and to incorporate state-of-the-art advances into the classroom and curriculum. The mission of the Computer Science Department is encompassed in the following specific goals to develop strong major programs that combine a sound theoretical and practical foundation with breadth and depth in the discipline; to serve the needs and interests of a broad spectrum of students, especially non-majors, who see the use of computers as important in their personal or professional development; to serve the needs and interests of the professional population in the community by providing appropriate graduate-level courses and degree programs; and to cultivate a collegial and collaborative environment that supports continued faculty development and well-being.

Residence Life and Housing provides a living and learning environment that engages students in community development and the practices of positive citizenship. There are 29 historic houses and 11 residence halls. Residence Halls includes McAlister Hall, Kelly House, Joe E. Berry, Rutledge Rivers, Buist Rivers, College Lodge, Craig Hall, McConnell Hall, Warren Place, Historic Houses, George Street Apartment Community, Liberty Street Residence Hall, and Historic Houses. All residence halls and houses are fully air-conditioned and heated. Some units are controlled through the College’s Central Energy Plant with a limited range of resident adjustment. All residence halls use digital recording systems with scanning cameras to record activity in public areas. Audio recording is used at all security desks and main lobbies. All students in residence halls/houses are provided with Cougar ResNet, a 24-7 high-speed Ethernet Internet service connection. Washing machines and dryers are located in all residence halls and most houses. For student’s convenience, food and soft drink machines are located in most residence halls. Certain cooking appliances are prohibited in the residence halls due to the fire hazard threat they pose. These include coffee makers without an automatic shut off switch, any open-coil heating appliance (such as a toaster), electric griddles, Foreman-type grills and waffle makers. Residents in upperclassman housing with a full kitchen may have a toaster or Foreman-type grill provided the item remains in the kitchen. The Office of Residence Life and Housing recognizes the special needs of physically challenged students. They work in conjunction with the Office of Disability Services to coordinate proper facilities and arrangements for students with special physical needs.
