Upper division CSIT electives 12 s.h.

excluding CSIT3700, CSIT3000/4000, and CSIT4100

A Computer Science and Information Technology major must also complete:

MATH1350 Discrete Mathematics 3 s.h.

MATH1380 Statistics or MATH1510 Calculus I 3 s.h.

We recommend that students interested in graduate study or a career as a computer scientist also minor in mathematics (with two semesters of calculus and linear algebra) and take lab science courses in physics, chemistry, or biology.

We recommend that students interested in a career in information technologies also minor in business administration and take statistics.
