Notes:

Undergraduate students who have been admitted to the university provisionally because of non-satisfaction of the high school mathematics requirements may not enroll in any computer science credit course before this requirement has been met.

All courses counting toward a major or minor in computer science must be passed with a grade of C- or better.

Prerequisite computer science courses must be passed with a grade of C before taking a subsequent course.

All computer science majors must complete a project course (marked with asterisk in the degree statements). The course used to meet this requirement is to be taken in the area of specialization, i.e., an area in which at least three courses are taken.

All courses in a prerequisite chain to a course are considered regressive to it--students may not take them for credit after passing the course later in the chain. Additionally, 810:030, 810:035, and 810:036 are regressive to 810:052 and any course having it as prerequisite.

FACULTY PROFILE

With distributed computing, the devil is in the details. That's because a programmer is dealing with all sorts of different hardware and networks. Meshing all of these elements presents a significant challenge that Paul Gray, associate professor of computer science, is leading the charge to solve... [more]
