Requirements for the Major


1.


Fulfill baccalaureate degree curriculum requirements. Computer science majors meet the writing and research component by successfully completing three required courses:

2.


Complete the computer science Lower Division core requirements, with a B or better in Computer Science I and II. Completion of Lower Division core requirements is required before declaring a computer science major.

3.


Complete 28 credits of computer science electives. Up to 12 of these credits may be chosen from: CS 210  , CS 295  , CS 280  ,CS 313 , and EMDA 350  (4 credits maximum). The remaining credits must be computer science courses labeled CS 300 or above, not including:   CS 310, CS 346, CS 401, CS 405, CS 407, and CS 409.

4.


Complete the computer science Upper Division core requirements.

5.


Maintain a GPA of at least 2.5 in all computer science courses labeled CS 300 or above.

Capstone


The capstone experience is a two-term sequence (CS 469  Systems Analysis and CS 470  Capstone Project) taken in the senior year. Students prepare for, design, and implement a project that solves a computer science or information systems problem. The project should be of sufficient size to be useful and to give the student a real-world experience, but it should also be small enough to be completed in a single capstone term.
