Because of the broad range of topics within computer science and the diverse interests of undergraduates, students may major in computer science through either the A.B. or B.S.E. degree program. We are the only department in the university with this flexibility.
Há 1 dia · The plan provides opportunities for study in software systems, algorithms and complexity, machine architecture, computer graphics, programming languages, machine learning, and other core areas of computer science.

- Summary of All Requirements
Computer science majors must take 8 departmental courses (departmentals) and do independent work. The minimum amount of independent work depends on whether you are an AB candidate (4 semesters minimum) or a BSE candidate (1-semester minimum). Departmental courses are any computer science course at the 300 or 400 level (except 397, 398, 497 and 498)...
Current course offerings can be found here and historical course information can be found on the Computer Science Course Schedule.
Any computer science (COS) course at the 300 or 400 level (except independent work) counts as a computer science departmental (graded). In addition, some graduate COS courses (500-level) count as undergraduate departmentals (COS 551, COS 534), depending on their content and structure. (Please ask if you need to use a graduate course as a department...

Most computer science majors enjoy programming. Quite a few start with zero or minimal background and can enhance their skills while progressing through the curriculum. The plan below applies to the Class of 2025 and beyond; the requirements for the Class of 2024 and earlier are available from the Computer Science Department website and the ...
The program welcomes students in all disciplines, including both areas traditionally making heavy use of computation (such as engineering, the physical sciences, economics, and mathematics) and emerging application areas (such as biology, cognitive science, graphic arts, music, history, philosophy, politics, sociology, literature, and so on).
