VOTING AND PROXY SOLICITATION
This Statement is furnished to stockholders of Computer Sciences Corporation

West Century Boulevard, Los Angeles, California 90045, at 2 o'clock p.m., Pa-
cific Daylight Savings Time, on August 8, 1994. This solicitation is made by
the Board of Directors of Computer Sciences Corporation and the cost of solic-
itation will be borne by the Company.
Solicitation other than by mail may be made personally, by telephone or by
facsimile, by regularly employed officers and employees of the Company who
will not be additionally compensated therefor. The Company will request per-
sons holding stock in their names for others, such as trustees, brokers and
nominees, to forward proxy material to their principals and request authority
for the execution of the proxy and will reimburse such persons for their ex-
penses in so doing. In addition, the Company has engaged the services of Mor-
row & Co., Inc. with respect to proxy soliciting matters at an expected cost

The Annual Report of the Company for the fiscal year ended April 1, 1994,

Proxy Statement.
You are requested to sign, date and return the enclosed proxy card to ensure
that your shares will be voted. A proxy may be revoked at any time prior to

tary of the Company a proxy bearing a later date.
<PAGE>
VOTING SECURITIES AND PRINCIPAL HOLDERS THEREOF
Only stockholders of record at the close of business on June 17, 1994, will
be entitled to notice and to vote at the meeting and any adjournment thereof.
The issued and outstanding shares of the Company at that date consisted of
50,741,371 shares of common stock. Those shares and all shares reported in the
tables which follow in this Proxy Statement reflect the three-for-one stock
split in the form of a 200% stock dividend declared for stockholders of record
as of December 22, 1993. Holders of common stock are entitled to one vote for
each share except that stockholders and any proxy holders for such stockhold-
ers are entitled to exercise the right to cumulative voting for the election
of directors. In order to exercise the right of cumulative voting, one or more
of the stockholders requesting cumulative voting must give notice before the
vote to the President or Secretary of the Corporation that the stockholder de-
sires that the voting for the election of directors be cumulative.
Under cumulative voting, each stockholder may give one nominee the number of
votes equal to the number of directors to be elected multiplied by the number
of shares held by the voting stockholder, or the individual stockholder can
distribute his or her votes among as many nominees as such stockholder deems
appropriate. The nominees (up to the number to be elected) receiving the high-
est number of votes will be declared elected. If the right to cumulative vot-
ing is exercised, the proxy holders named in the accompanying proxy shall have
the discretion to cumulate votes in any manner, and to vote for less than all
of the nominees indicated on any such duly executed proxy, in order to elect
the maximum number of the nominees set forth in Item I below.
As of May 31, 1994, The TCW Group, Inc. (formerly known as TCW Management
Company), through its subsidiaries which act as general partner of limited
partnerships, trustee of trusts and/or investment manager of separate third
party accounts which hold shares of the Company, was the only stockholder
known by management to hold beneficially 5% or more of the outstanding shares
of the Company. Holdings of The TCW Group, Inc. and all corporate officers and
directors of the Company as a group are as follows:

ment of the Company does not contemplate that any of the nine nominees will be

The 1990 Nonemployee Director Retirement Plan provides specified benefits
for directors who retire from the Board of Directors after December 10, 1990
with at least five years of service, and who are not, and have never been,
employees of the Company. Pursuant to the Plan, each such director will
receive an annual benefit equal to the sum of (1) the annual retainer for
nonemployee directors in effect as of the date of the director's retirement,
plus (2) the daily Board meeting fee in effect as of such date multiplied by
the number of regularly scheduled Board meetings held during the year ending
on such date. Such annual benefit is payable during the period commencing on
the date of retirement, or such later date as the director shall attain age
65, and continuing for the number of years that the director served on the
Board of Directors, provided that if the director shall have served for at
least ten years, such period shall continue for ten years or until such later
date upon which the director shall die. If any director shall die prior to the
expiration of such period, the remaining benefits shall be paid to the
beneficiary designated for such purpose by the director.
No nominee for director currently owns beneficially 1% or more of the out-
standing shares of the Company except Mr. Hoover, who owns 1.14% of the out-
standing shares.
At the previous election of directors held at the Annual Meeting of Stock-
holders on August 9, 1993, approximately 85.49% of the outstanding shares eli-
gible to vote were represented either in person or by proxy. More than 99% of
the shares present and voting at the 1993 Annual Meeting of Stockholders voted
for the director nominees.
MEETINGS OF THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS AND ITS COMMITTEES
During the fiscal year ended April 1, 1994, the Board of Directors held
eight meetings. The incumbent directors, while serving during the last fiscal
year, attended in the aggregate, 94% of the total number of meetings of the
Board of Directors and the total number of meetings held by all committees of
the Board on which they served.
Among the standing committees of the Board of Directors of the Company are
the Executive Committee, Audit Committee and Compensation Committee. In addi-
tion, there are committees of disinterested members of the Board of Directors
for each of the Company's Stock Incentive Plans as described in this Proxy
Statement. The Board of Directors does not have a Nominating Committee.
Messrs. Honeycutt, Hoover and Level have served as members of the Executive
Committee which, within the limits of authority delegated by the full Board of
Directors of the Company pursuant to standing and specific resolutions of the
Board, acts on behalf of the Board. During the past fiscal year the Executive
Committee held 21 meetings as affirmed by written consents.

<PAGE>
Messrs. Lawton, McFarlan and Mellor have served as the members of the Audit
Committee which during the last fiscal year held three meetings. The principal
duties and responsibilities of the Audit Committee are to recommend to the
Board the accounting firm to be engaged as the Company's independent auditors
and the terms of their engagement and to meet with the Company's independent
and internal auditors to review the scope of their audits and their audit
findings.
Messrs. Allen, Bailey and McFarlan have served as the members of the Compen-
sation Committee whose principal function is to determine the salary and bonus
for all corporate officers at the level of vice president or higher. Stock in-
centive awards for those corporate officers are determined pursuant to each
Stock Incentive Plan by various committees consisting of disinterested members
of the Board of Directors. During the last fiscal year the Compensation Com-
mittee held two meetings.
EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION
COMPENSATION COMMITTEE
The Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors (the "Committee") has
been composed of three independent non-employee directors who have no "inter-
locking" relationships as defined by the Securities and Exchange Commission
("SEC"). The Committee is responsible for setting the salary of the Chief Ex-
ecutive Officer, who is Chairman of the Company, reviewing the design and ef-
fectiveness of executive compensation policies, and reviewing and approving
the Chief Executive Officer's recommendations of compensation for other key
executives. All recommendations relating to awards of stock options and re-
stricted stock to the Company's executive officers are approved by the Commit-
tee.
REPORT OF COMPENSATION COMMITTEE ON ANNUAL COMPENSATION OF EXECUTIVE OFFICERS
The Company's executive compensation program is designed to provide competi-
tive levels of annual cash compensation, as well as long-term incentives based
on the Company's performance, and includes a base salary, annual incentive
awards, and long-term incentives based on stock option awards and restricted
stock grants. In addition, the Company has adopted employee benefit plans in-
cluding retirement plans, health plans, insurance plans, and others in which
the officers are eligible participants.
Base compensation is established based on competitive evaluations for each
position, individual responsibility and contribution. The annual incentive
award is determined based on the Company's performance compared to prior years
and established annual goals. Performance factors include revenue growth, net
income growth and cash flow, as well as specific individual achievements.
Stock options and restricted stock grants are awarded based on the individu-
al's position and long-term contribution.
The Committee believes that the Company's executive compensation program al-
lows the Company to attract and retain outstanding executives in the informa-
tion technology field and is well structured to align management's and stock-
holders' interest in the enhancement of stockholder value through stock owner-
ship programs and incentive programs based on performance and stock value.

<PAGE>
Relationship of Company Performance to Executive Compensation
Fiscal year 1994 compensation was determined on an individual basis in ac-
cordance with the above policies and programs. The Company's performance sub-
stantially met or exceeded its financial goals. Revenue growth of 4%, net in-
come growth of 16% (before cumulative effect of accounting change) and free
cash flow of approximately $70,000,000 were considered strong results.
Compensation paid to the Company's five named executive officers for fiscal
year 1994, as reflected in the Summary Compensation Table on page 8, consisted
primarily of base salary, performance bonuses, stock option grants and re-
stricted stock awards.
The measures of performance that are utilized under the Company's compensa-
tion plans for executive officers vary. Primarily, they include target versus
actual consolidated financial results, growth over prior years and subjective
considerations of individual performance.
The Company's executive compensation program takes into account any poten-
tial limitations on the deductibility of compensation in excess of $1,000,000
per year imposed by Internal Revenue Code Section 162(m), but does not require
that all compensation qualify for exemption from such limitation. Based on the
advice of counsel, it is the opinion of the Committee that all compensation
paid to executive officers for fiscal year 1994 is deductible for income tax
purposes under Section 162(m).
Fiscal Year 1994 Stock Option Grants
In fiscal year 1994, grants of stock options and restricted stock awards
were made to various executive officers, including the named executive offi-
cers as shown in the Options Granted in Last Fiscal Year table on page 9.
Chief Executive Officer Compensation
As reflected in the Summary Compensation Table on page 8, Mr. Hoover's base
salary was increased during fiscal year 1994 by $85,384 (14.7%). In determin-
ing Mr. Hoover's base salary for fiscal year 1994, the Committee considered
the Company's financial performance for the prior year, Mr. Hoover's individ-
ual performance, and his long-term contributions to the success of the Compa-
ny. The Committee also compared Mr. Hoover's base salary to the base salaries
of chief executive officers at peer companies.
For fiscal year 1994, Mr. Hoover's annual bonus payment represented 86.3% of
his base salary as is reflected in the Summary Compensation Table on page 8.
Under the Company's executive compensation program, Mr. Hoover was paid
$575,000 in connection with fiscal year 1994 performance, reflecting the fact
that the Company's performance substantially met or exceeded its financial
goals.
Mr. Hoover now owns 535,690 shares of the Company's Common Stock of which
11,250 shares are restricted. In addition, he has options to purchase an ag-
gregate of 102,000 shares of which 48,000 shares are exercisable on or before
July 30, 1994.

<PAGE>
Conclusion
The Committee believes this executive compensation program serves the inter-
ests of stockholders and the Company effectively. The various pay vehicles of-
fered are appropriately balanced to motivate executives to contribute to the
Company's overall future successes, thereby enhancing the value of the Company
for the stockholders.
We will continue to address the effectiveness of the Company's total compen-
sation program to meet the needs of the Company and serve the interests of its
stockholders.

PENSION PLANS
The table below shows the estimated accrued annual amount at age 65 that
would be received on a single life annuity basis from the Company's Pension
Plan (the "Pension Plan") and Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan (the
"SERP") at specified base salaries and years of service. Messrs. Hoover,
Honeycutt, Level and Cooper are covered by both Plans.
The Pension Plan is a contributory, career average defined benefit plan and
benefits are determined based on the participant's average base salary during
all years of participation. There is no deduction for Social Security or other
offset amounts and base salary does not include any bonus, overtime or shift
differential compensation. The remuneration covered by the Pension Plan during
the fiscal year ended April 1, 1994 for Messrs. Hoover, Honeycutt, Level and
Cooper was $666,346, $383,654, $302,116, and $263,558, respectively, but is
limited to $150,000 for 1994 in accordance with the Internal Revenue Code of
1986, as amended by the Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act of 1993. The
shortfall in benefits due to legal limits (maximum benefits and the use of the
legally limited salary) is restored pursuant to the excess benefit provisions
of the SERP. Messrs. Hoover, Honeycutt, Level and Cooper will have credited
years of service in the Pension Plan at age 65 of 12 years, 24 years, 16
years, and 19 years, respectively. Covered salary under the Pension Plan is
significantly lower than final average compensation as used in the SERP
because of the Pension Plan's career average provision.
11
<PAGE>
The SERP also provides additional annual benefits for certain designated of-
ficers and key executives of the Company who satisfy its minimum service re-
quirements. The benefit is based on 50% of the average of the participant's
highest three (of the last five) annual base salaries, with a deduction of
100% of the amount of primary Social Security benefits payable at the time of
determination. Upon the death of the participant, a spousal benefit of 50% of
the participant's benefit is generally payable for the spouse's lifetime.
In the event of a change-in-control of the Company followed by the separa-
tion of any of the named Executive Officers from service to the Company within
36 months thereafter, the effected Officer(s) becomes entitled to accelerated
vesting of benefit entitlements under the SERP.

* The SERP benefit is based on the final average compensation (as defined
above) which is shown in this column. The Pension Plan benefit is based on
career average compensation which is substantially less than the amount
shown above.
Mr. Champy is covered by the additional benefit provisions of the SERP as
described above. The covered remuneration during the fiscal year ended April
1, 1994 for Mr. Champy was $332,801. His estimated annual accrued benefit from
age 62 on a single life annuity basis is $151,437.
