English translation:Introduction to computer science
Explanation:
総論の部分は、おそらく初歩的な、入門コースと思われるので、Introduction to...で良いと思います。
計算機の部分、computerだけというのはまずあり得なくて、computer science かcomputer engineeringでしょう。でも確率的にはcomputer scienceでほぼ大丈夫と思います。

Explanation:
このクラスの上に中級や上級のクラスがあるなら、Introduction もふさわしいと思います。これが専門科目でなく一般教養としてのクラスならGeneral で良いと思います。
