Major Requirements
8 courses offered next term are explicitly required for the CS major, the DS major, or both. Take in order listed all incomplete courses for which you meet pre-requisites within your major. For courses not required for the major, these constitute highly recommended electives.
CS + DS
CS 151 MWF 910-1010 MWF 1050-1150 MWF 1200-1300
CS 151 is lower priority than MATH 280 for DATA majors and equal priority with all other courses.
CS
CS__ 152 MW 1020-1150 MATH 251W MWF 1200-1300 CS__ 351 MWF 910-1010
If you have not completed both MATH 251W and CS 152 at the end of the year, you cannot complete the major next year.
MATH 251W has a listed calculus requirement but if you take it after CS 151 (or DATA 151, MATH 138) that is okay too.
DS
DATA 151 TTh 800- 930 TTh 940-1110 TTh 1310-1440 TTh 1450-1620 DATA 152 or other stat MW 1310-1440 (DATA 152) TTh 1310-1440 (DATA 152) MWF 1200-1300 (MATH 138) MWF 1310-1410 (MATH 138) MATH 280 MWF 1310-1410 DATA 351 MW 1450-1620
MATH 280 has a calculus requirement and usually fills with a waitlist.
If you do not complete DATA 151 + some stats next term, you cannot complete the major next year.
Electives
The CS major and DS major both require 3 electives, from within the department or from a list of approved electives, many of which have external prerequisite requirements.
CS + DS
CS 280 (Foundations of Human-Computer Interaction) TTh 940-1110 (requires CS 151) DATA 299 (Statistical Engineering) MW 1450-1620 (requires DATA 152) STAT 341 (Mathematical Statistics I) MW 1310-1440 (requires MATH 152)
CS
These all require MATH 251W.MATH 345 (Complex Analysis) MW 1310-1440 MATH 446 (Real Analysis) MWF 840-1010 MATH 462 (Number Theory) MWF 940-1110
DS
TBD.Classes of interest
These classes should not be assumed to count for elective credit, but are good to talk to your advisor about if you can't fit anything else in your schedule.
TBDCollege Requirements
Graduation requirements include:
