Preparatory Courses

• COSC 101 - Introduction for Computing I and COSC 101L or equivalent experience (usually completed in the first year)

Required Courses

• COSC 102 - Introduction for Computing II and COSC 102L (completed by the end of the sophomore year)
• COSC 202 - Data Structures and Algorithms and COSC 202L 
• COSC 208 - Introduction to Computer Systems and COSC 208L 
• COSC 290 - Discrete Structures and COSC 290L 

Electives

• Four COSC courses at the 200, 300 or 400 level 
  • No more than two may be at the 200 level
  • At least one must be at the 400 level
  • COSC 291, COSC 391, COSC 491, and COSC 492 are not counted toward this requirement.

GPA Requirement

A minimum GPA of 2.00 in the COSC courses chosen to meet the major requirements is necessary to satisfy the major.
