Redesigned and reintroduced into the Newberry College curriculum, the Computer Science major seeks to meet growing demands for skilled I.T. professionals, particularly in South Carolina. The computer science track is a more science-heavy, theoretical course of study that will train students for work in coding and programming. The information technology track includes a more hands-on approach, designed for work with hardware and software to improve communication, strengthen security and solve technological problems.

Neuroscience is a growing field and is an ideal course for students who wish to enter medical school - especially with an eye towards psychiatric care. A major in Neuroscience places a strong emphasis on both biology and psychology. In addition, a major in neuroscience offers students a degree with a wide range of possiblities upon graduation and will provide science majors another opportunity to specialize within a growing area of medical science.

This major is offered through a partnership of Newberry College with the Lower Cost Models Consortium. The LCMC neuroscience curriculum was built through a collaboration with leading neuroscience educators and nueroscience offerings will be taught online by experts in the field. The neuroscience curriculum is supplemented with science and psychology courses offered on-site at Newberry College.

The Department of Social & Behavioral Sciences offers a major and a minor in Public & Non-Profit Administration. The versatile curriculum draws on public relations, political science, social work, international affairs, church leadership, finance, administrative leadership, criminal justice and health care management.

Based on the principles of teamwork, ethics and leadership, the baccalaureate degree in Business Administration includes study in the areas of accounting, finance, management, marketing, economics, business law, international business and management information systems. Students will demonstrate oral and written communication skills, as well as analytical decision-making abilities, with an emphasis on creativity and innovation within existing frameworks. Furthermore, reality-based learning opportunities — service learning projects and internships — equip students to be competitive contributors in the local, regional, and global economy.

Oversight for the Business Administration program is provided by the Business Administration Advisory Committee, which consists of practicing CPAs and other professionals in the business community. The Department also sponsors one of the country's longest-running chapters of Phi Beta Lambda, the student business club.
