To become a Computer Science Major

If you have previous experience programming in Java and you are proficient with the language:

 

Step 1: Take CS 367: Introduction to Data Structures

• What if I already have transfer or AP credit for CS 367?
  

 

Step 2: Take CS 240 (also called Math 240): Introduction to Discrete Mathematics

• Note: You can take CS 240 while you are taking CS 367.

 

If your average GPA in CS 367 and CS 240 is a 2.6 or higher, you may declare the CS major.

If your average GPA is below 2.6, you can raise your GPA with one more eligible CS course.

 

If you have previous experience programming in Java but are uncertain about whether you are proficient enough to take CS 367, consult with a CS undergraduate advisor.

 

If you want to review Java programming, are not proficient with Java, or you learned a programming language other than Java, do the basic sequence of CS courses, including CS 302.
