Bachelor of Science Technical Track Requirement

All students in the BS in computer science program are required to take four technical courses (for a minimum of 12 credits) of computer science coursework for their technical track. Two of the four courses must be selected from the following list.  We recommend that they both be taken from within the same track, but this is not necessary.  The courses not from this list, generally, must have CSCI 2113 as a prerequisite or within their prerequisite chain. The faculty advisor’s documented approval is required before these latter two courses may be applied towards degree completion. Note that there is no requirement that all four courses be from the same general technical area.
