Students complete additional upper division courses to total at least 30 units. At least 24 units must be CMPT courses. Graduate courses may be included with permission of the school.
Courses must be selected in consultation with a to achieve a coherent program of study.
The student is responsible for satisfying the prerequisites of program courses. This may entail completing more or all courses listed in the lower division requirements of the major in computing science, depending upon the student’s prior transcript.
Co-operative Education and Work Experience
All computing science students are strongly encouraged to explore the opportunities that Work Integrated Learning (WIL) can offer. Please contact a during your first year of studies to ensure that you have all of the necessary courses and information to help plan for a successful co-op experience.
Residency Requirements and Transfer Credit
- At least half of the program's total units must be earned through 丁香园AV study.
- At least two thirds of the program's total upper division units must be earned through 丁香园AV study.
