** Courses and the number of credits required within these groups are made from a combination of those determined by the College of Liberal Arts and Science and those determined by the Department of Computer Science. Both the minimum number of courses and the minimum number of credits stated in each group must be completed.

Other majors within the College of Liberal Arts and Sciences may require that the Group Requirements be satisfied in different ways.

Students must elect at least 1 course from each of two approved lists, one involving international perspectives, and one with diversity within the US. These courses can be chosen from social science, arts and humanities or general electives. See your advisor for copies of the approved lists.

Before taking the next course in Computer Science, a C- or better is required in all Computer Science courses listed as a prerequisite for that course.

Minor or Second Major or Degree

See Advisor--These options could increase the number of courses and credits needed to graduate.

Electives--the total number varies. Some courses can be counted as electives only. Courses that are taken after completing the minimum requirements stated for each group, including those taken for the Computer Science major, count as electives. Courses that do not fall within the groups required by the College of Liberal Arts and Sciences, including courses taken to satisfy the prerequisite requirements of courses within the groups, can also count only as electives.

A minimum of 124.5 credits with an overall GPA of 2.0 are required for graduation. Beginning with the 1993-95 Catalog, all graduates within the College of Liberal Arts and Sciences must also have a 2.0 GPA in the courses within their major department, as shown on their Degree Audit.

A minimum of 45 credits numbered 300 or above is required for graduation.
