Art Department

The mission of the Computer Science department at Redeemer University College is to provide a current curriculum consisting of a variety of theoretical and practical topics in computer science from a Reformed Christian perspective. Courses are designed to equip students with the tools to be productive and remain current in the growing field of Computer Science.

“Why is programming fun? What delights may its practitioner expect as his reward? First is the sheer joy of making things. As the child delights in his mud pie, so the adult enjoys making things, especially things of his own design. I think this delight must be an image of God's delight in making things, a delight shown in the distinctiveness and newness of each leaf and each snowflake.”

from F.P. Brooks, “The Mythical Man-Moth”,
Addison Wesley, 1995, pg. 7.

Dr. Derek Schuurman
Assistant Professor of Computer Science

Reconciling faith and technology is a topic in which Dr. Schuurman is well versed. He recognizes how technology has become an idol in our society, and that many in our age possess a “post-modern despair that technology will turn on us.”
