COMPUTER SCIENCE DEGREES
Computer science is an incredibly popular undergraduate major. The standard major grants 6,156 bachelor's degrees a year; last spring, 31,737 students received bachelor's degrees in computer science, making it the 19th most popular field in America. 701 of those degrees were granted by the University of California-Berkeley, which has the biggest program in America. 6,921 of those alumni attended college in California.
664 schools nationwide award a four-year degree in computer science; accordingly, choosing the best college could be hard. In comparison to the average subject, there are 3.5 times as many schools offering undergraduate degrees in computer science, making it the 29th most commonly offered subject in the United States of America.
While 71% of last May's degrees in computer science were four-year degrees; 29% were graduate degrees. Computer science is the 16th most popular advanced degree in the United States, with 12,782 degrees awarded. To put that in context, grad degrees in computer science are 4.6 times more popular among postgrads than the average discipline.
In Total, 44,519 students received a bachelor's or higher in computer science last year.
1,595 of those 44,519 alumni (3.6%) did all their schooling online - 542 undergraduates and 1,053 postgraduate students. As you've likely noticed by now, computer science isn't the most highly demanded online major. It is the 52nd most popular online field with 12.6% more online students than the average subject. For postgrads, it ranks 33rd, and is 70.9% above the U.S. average (616).
Oregon State University conferred 156 online undergrad degrees, more than any other U.S. institution.
Additionally, Colleges from Oregon conferred the most online undergrad degrees in computer science last May (156). By itself, Oregon graduates 29% of the major's remote students.
Only 1.7% of all undergrad degrees in computer science are completed via a fully online program, (8.2% for advanced degrees). Trident University International's last undergraduate class contained a higher percentage of online computer science majors than any other college in America (7.71%). 76 students in their 986 student class completed an online bachelor's degree in computer science. They offer 8 degrees fully online, and had 4,966 enrolled online undergrads last fall. That's 100% of the student body.
Bachelor's degrees in computer science are available remotely at 37 institutions in the United States, making it the 29th most universally offered remote U.S. degree. Faintly north of one twentieth of schools providing the degree even have a comprehensively online option, and for each and every public institution awarding undergraduate degree in computer science there are 1.8 private schools. Illinois leads the nation in providing online choices, with 4 of the programs headquartered there.
If you want to study computer science and enjoy the thought of learning at your house, you may want to consider applying to Oregon State University, as it has the 19th best computer science program in the country. It also furnishes an additional 49 degrees entirely online, so their systems are presumably strong. Further, they have 5,999 remote undergrads, which is 23% of their whole student body.
