Computer Science Curriculum
1The selection of a First Year Seminar is likely to fulfill requirements for both the First Year Seminar and a General Education Requirement. Thus, the First Year Seminar will not add to the total credits for the semester. Talk with your advisor if you have any questions.
2Computer Science majors must complete at least 8 credits of courses in a laboratory science for science or engineering majors. Qualifying sequences include PHYS 140 -PHYS 141 , CHEM 112-113 or BIOL 141 -BIOL 142 , along with their associated Labs; other courses require explicit approval of the department.
3Major electives in Computer Science must be chosen from CMPS 341 , CMPS 354 , CMPS 355 , CMPS 356 , CMPS 358 , CMPS 360 , CMPS 362 , CMPS 364 , CMPS 370 , CMPS 372 , CMPS 376 , CMPS 384 , CMPS 393 , CMPS 440 and CMPS 481 .
4Must be a mathematics course approved by the department.
