The Department of Computer Science is an integral part of the Rhodes College liberal arts curriculum. Our department's faculty have a wide range of research interests and all share a dedication to undergraduate teaching. We feature a collaborative environment where students work closely with professors in the classroom and on research projects. We seek to provide our students with a strong foundation that blends theory with practice, and our graduates leave equally well-prepared for industry and for graduate school.
Rhodes students have a wealth of opportunities to be involved with computer science through our student-run CS clubs; summer research fellowships with department faculty; study abroad opportunities; programming competitions; internships with local companies; or volunteering with CodeCrew or Camp Codette. Our students conduct research not only with professors, but also through Research Experiences for Undergraduates (REUs) around the country and the St. Jude Summer Plus program.

Judging
A group of students from the Computer Science Club at Rhodes College during the 2025 Game Jam event, in which they designed, developed, and showcased their games. The event was organized by Professor Jace King (Computer Science) and by Computer Science Club President Matar Anas '25 and Jessie Chau '27. Trieu Khang Trat '28 won the competition, which also featured a guest talk from renowned game designer and developer Cole Medeiros, organized by Dr. Ricardo Martins (Media Studies). Throughout the Jam, students received guidance and support from both Professor King and Dr. Sean Kugele (Computer Science), who helped them bring their game ideas to life.
