Program description
At UCA Farnham, we offer a Bachelor of Science (Honors) degree in Creative Computing that will provide you with the theoretical grounding and practical experience necessary to succeed in any field.

As you progress through the program, you'll have access to state-of-the-art facilities that will help you learn visual programming and eventually specialize in areas like audio, mobile app development, artificial intelligence, or AI.
