General Computer Science (BSc)
Effective September 2007, this program will not be offered to any new students entering the university. For new students entering the university in September 2007, general degrees will not have majors or minors.
In addition to completing all the common requirements for the General BSc program, the student must also complete the applicable departmental requirements. Total credits required is 15. The major must include: CP104, CP114, CP120, CP213, CP264, CP317, CP363, plus 2 senior credits in Computer Science. The major must also include MA110* (or MA103), MA121, MA238, MA240.
This schedule serves as a guide to the order that the courses may be taken. Students may follow a different schedule of their choice.
