Computer Science Major bachelors degree (bs or ba) » Program Prerequisite: Completion or equivalent of a Weber State AAS degree in Computer Science and acceptance into the baccalaureate degree program. » Minor: Required for the Customized Option; not required for the other two emphasis areas. » Grade Requirements: A grade of "C" or better in all required CS and support courses. A grade of "C-" is not acceptable. In addition, an overall GPA of 2.70 or higher must be attained for these courses. Also refer to the General Requirements on page 38. » Credit Hour Requirements: A minimum of 120 credit hours is required for graduation. The actual number of credit hours required for graduation varies depending upon the option or emphasis chosen. Advisement It is strongly suggested that Computer Science students see an advisor on a regular basis. Call the department secretary at 801-626- 7929 for an appointment with the advisor. Admission Requirements into the Bachelor Program 1. Complete an AAS degree in Computer Science or equivalent. 2. Complete each of the following courses (or their equivalent) with an average grade of 2.7 ("B-") or higher: CS SI 1410, CS SI2650, CS SI2420 and ENGL EN1010. 3. Formally declare and be accepted to baccalaureate status through the Department of Computer Science. Specific requirements and details may be obtained from a department advisor. General Education Refer to pages 38-44 for either Bachelor of Science or Bachelor of Arts requirements. If a Computer Science major does not have the prerequisite skills at entrance, TBETE1700 is recommended to fill a portion of the WSU Computer Literacy core general education requirement. The MATH QL1080 or 1210 course required for the Computer Science major also satisfies the WSU core general education Quantitative Literacy requirement. Computer Science majors must complete COMM HU2110 as part of the Humanities general education requirement. It is recommended that Computer Science majors take PHYS PS/SI2010 for the Computer and Network Security Emphasis or PHYS PS/SI2210 for the Software Engineering Emphasis and Customized Option as part of the Physical Sciences general education requirement. Refer to the Computer Science Advanced Placement exam notes under the Course Requirements for BS or BA Degree To be taken in addition to the requirements for the AAS degree in Computer Science.
