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

    , 
   CSCI 2170
    , 
   CSCI 3080

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 higher in the prerequisite. Each course counted for a major in Computer Science must be completed with a grade of C (2.00) or  higher. 

 ,  , and   are considered service courses and do not count toward a major or minor.

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 Business Administration is chosen, then the following business requirements must be taken: INFS 2200  or INFS 3100 ; ACTG 3000  (or  ACTG 2110  and 
   ACTG 2120
