- 10 required computer science courses
- Introductory programming sequence (CS151, CS212, CS312)
- Computer Engineering (CS371)
- Systems courses (CS366, CS266, CS466)
- Programming languages (CS451)
- Algorithm Analysis (CS462)
- Software Engineering (CS482)
- Senior Project (CS496)
- 3 computer science electives (CS300 or CS400 level courses, or a graduate level CS course)
- 5 mathematical science courses:
- Calculus (MA251)
- Discrete Math (CS295/MA295; or MA395 if math major)
- Linear Algebra (MA301)
- Statistics (ST210)
- One of the following: MA252; MA427; MA445; MA447; MA448; MA481, MA/ST485, and ST465
- 2 courses of majors-level* courses in biology, chemistry, or physics:
- PH201/PH291
- One of the following: BL150; CH101; PH202
* A majors-level science course is a course that students who major in that course take. Courses intended for non-science majors do not count.
