Computer Science, Business Applications Concentration, B.S.


Department of Computer Science 

All Computer Science majors are assigned to a faculty advisor through the Computer Science Department office. The student is responsible for seeking the assistance of the advisor. This catalog is not intended to provide the detail necessary for self-advising.

A major in Computer Science consists of 44 semester hours of computer science courses, including

  1. a 27-hour core of CSCI 1170 , CSCI 2170 , CSCI 3080 , CSCI 3110 CSCI 3130 , CSCI 3160 CSCI 3250 , and CSCI 4700 ;
  2. a mathematics core of MATH 1910 , MATH 1920 , and MATH 2050 ;
  3. additional math courses (4 hours) that can be counted toward a math major;
  4. COMM 2200 ;
  5. PHIL 3150 ;
  6. additional courses as described below.

A maximum of 3 hours in the major may come from CSCI 3970 , CSCI 4280 , CSCI 4600 , and CSCI 4910 . Credit in secondary computer languages toward the major is limited to 3 hours. In order to take any computer science course having a prerequisite, the student must have earned a grade of C (2.00) or better in the prerequisite. Each course counted for a major in Computer Science must be completed with a grade of C (2.00) or higher. CSCI 1000 , CSCI 1150 , and CSCI 3150  are considered service courses and do not count toward a major or minor.

The Business Applications concentration requires the following in addition to the core requirements:

  1. CSCI 4410  and CSCI 4560 ;
  2. 11-12 hours of computer science electives, at least 8 of which are upper division;
  3. a minor in either Business Administration or Mathematics. If a minor in Mathematics is chosen, then the following additional business requirements must be taken: ACTG 2110 , ECON 2420 , FIN 3000 , MGMT 3610 , and one of ACTG 2120 , BLAW 3400 , MKT 3820 , ACSI 4230 , or MGMT 3620 .
