Course Description

The Computer Science Concentration consists of 42-45 hours in computer science, 3-6 additional hours of ITCS/ITIS at 3000 or above, and 12 hours in mathematics and statistics. Courses included are: ITCS 1212, 1212L, 1213, 1213L, 1600, 2175, 2214, 2215, 3146, 3155, 3160, 3688; 12 hours in one of the CS focus areas listed below; 3-6 hours of ITCS 4155, 4232, 4650, 4651, 4990, or 4991 for capstone experience; MATH 1120, 2164 STAT 1220, 2223; or MATH 1241, 1242, 2164, STAT 2122. PHIL 1105, ITIS 2211, and ENGL 2116 are also required. A component of 21-24 semester hours of approved non-computer science courses forming an integrated program of secondary focus must be included. A three-hour bridge course is included in the 21-24 hours. This course bridges between CS and the secondary focus discipline, which can be an ITCS course or a course in the other discipline. The secondary focus in business consists of ACCT 2121, 2122, ECON 2101, 2102, INFO 3231, 3234, 3236/3240 plus ITCS/INFO 2231 as a required bridge course. The secondary focus in cognitive science consists of PSYC 3115, 3116, PHIL 3245, ITIS 3130; and any two from ITIS 3131, ENGL 4161, 4167, 4263, PHIL 3235, 3265, PSYC 3122, 3313, 4316 with ITCS 3216 as a required bridge course. In general, a secondary focus consists of 9 hours at the 3000-level or above, plus an additional 12 hours of approved non-ITCS courses, forming an integrated program in a complementary (or applied) area to computer science, possibly forming a minor in that discipline area.
