DIGITAL SCIENCES - B.S.

Kent State University Catalog 208-209 DIGITAL - B.S. College of Communication and Information School of Digital Sciences 29 Taylor Hall Kent Campus 0-672-905 digital-sciences@kent.edu www.kent.edu/dsci Description The Bachelor of Science degree in Digital Sciences is designed to provide students with the ability to adapt and succeed in a rapidly changing digital world. The program provides a broad overview of digital technologies, often from multiple points of view. For example, a student may study the content and visual layout of a web page with a journalism professor and later study the programming aspects of a web page with a business professor. A course with an architect adds more material on design, and a course with a computer scientist adds additional programming skills. This multidisciplinary skill set adds the flexibility needed for many of today's careers. Building on this broad overview, the program adds further depth in technical topics, societal issues, and project management. Students gain additional technical competency by studying information management, database systems, and digital security. Finally, students learn how to work on a team by studying requirements engineering, project management, and team dynamics. The program culminates with a multidisciplinary group capstone project. Students put theory into practice in this integrative experience by applying their new knowledge and skills on a large group project. Moreover, this capstone class meets concurrently with a class in another major, with each group contributing their disciplinary expertise to create a richer product than either group could create individually. As a result, both sets of students receive practical experience working on a diverse project team, much as they will do later in the workplace. The Digital Sciences major includes the following optional concentrations: The Digital Systems Analysis concentration focuses on the business data and software applications needed by an organization and the planning and management of a computer information system to meet those needs. The Digital Systems Interaction concentration focuses on the educational and interactive applications needed by an organization and the improvement of the user's interaction with those applications. The Digital Systems Management concentration focuses on the technical leadership needed by an organization and the management of the computer information system and infrastructure to support the goals of the business. The Digital Systems Software Development concentration focuses on the website and software applications needed by an organization and the design and maintenance of a user interface and software system to meet those needs. The Digital Systems Telecommunication Networks concentration focuses on the communication infrastructure needed by an organization and the design and management of a telecommunication system and computer network to meet those needs. Students may declare the Digital Sciences major without a concentration. That course of study is ideal for students interested in other career paths within digital sciences. Programs in the College of Communication and Information are, by nature, innovative, interdisciplinary and collaborative, which is critical to both professional and scholarly disciplines. Students are educated to work at the intersections of communication, information and technology. Through a core of diverse theory- and practice-based courses, students learn basic concepts that apply across the range of college programs and develop a sense of professional expectations and build toward interdisciplinary thinking and application.
