School of Computer Science and Information Systems

According to Dr. Joni Adkins, Director of the School of Computer Science and Information Systems, donors' support assists with student scholarships, equipment, competition related expenses, and more.

There are multiple donor-funded scholarships for students within the School of Computer Science and Information Systems. These scholarships are merit-based or need-based and help students more affordably receive a degree relating to computer science or information systems.

In addition to scholarships, gifts help provide equipment for the Internet of Things class, student research support, cyber defense club competitions, programming competitions, equipment or software for classes, and maker space equipment and supplies.
