CS+X Programs
Computer Scientists work in virtually every employment sector and influence the study of every field. Lewis University offers an innovative CS+Music program that prepares students to apply the knowledge and tools of Computer Science to Music. The CS+Music program features coursework in Computer Science, Music, and a foreign language. Students will complete their degree by completing a capstone project that bridges both disciplines, as well as an internship that will give them professional experience in their chosen fields.

Transfer Students
Most transfer students who enroll at Lewis starting their junior year complete the major in two years. It is important, however, that students carefully evaluate which of their prior coursework will transfer by examining course descriptions instead of course titles, as the meaning of course titles do vary across different institutions.
