Learning by Doing

Computer science at La Salle is active and hands-on. Students are encouraged to explore, test ideas, solve problems and learn through experience. Whether they are studying technology concepts, networking, cybersecurity or the role of artificial intelligence, students gain practical knowledge that connects directly to the world around them. This approach reflects La Salle’s broader academic philosophy: students learn by doing, questioning, trying and discovering as they gain clarity, independence and ambition for the future.

College Credit Plus Technology Courses

La Salle is expanding its College Credit Plus course options in partnership with Cincinnati State. Beginning with the 2025-2026 school year, students will have access to two new technology courses: Information Technology Concepts and Network Communications. Both courses are prerequisites for a Cybersecurity program scheduled to launch at the beginning of the 2026-2027 school year.

These courses give students early exposure to high-demand technology fields and help them begin building a pathway toward future study in computer science, cybersecurity, information technology, networking, and related careers.

Built for Tomorrow

La Salle’s Computer Science Department prepares students to do more than use technology. It helps them understand it, question it, build with it, and apply it with purpose. Students leave with technical knowledge, problem-solving skills, and the confidence to explore future opportunities in a changing world. At La Salle, computer science helps young men stand out, stand together, and become Lancers prepared to lead with integrity.Potential
