Math & Computer Science Dept

Computer Science


Description of major

Students majoring in computer science fulfill the departmental requirements by completing the following:

1. Required computer science courses: CS106, 206, 210, 318, and 330. CS106, 206, and 210 should normally be completed by the end of the second year. Note that CS 210 has prerequisites CS206, MC215, and one semester of calculus.

2. Required mathematics course: MA200.

3. Required MC courses: MC215 and 306.

4. Electives: Three CS or MC courses at the 200 level or above. For one of the three electives the student may instead take, with permission of the department, a course in another discipline that has substantial computer science content. Students planning to go to graduate school should take additional courses in mathematics. In particular, MA113 and 204 should be considered. Courses counting toward the major may not be taken satisfactory/unsatisfactory.
