Composite Emphasis: Complete a minor in any academic area other than, or in addition to, Mathematics. • Complete Math 213 (5). • Choose one of the following (22 credit hour minimum): - One class from each of five groups (may be supplemented with CS 480/489) - At least three classes from one group (may include CS 479 or 480 (2) or 489 (2)).

In order to be considered for baccalaureate degree seeking status in the department, a student must complete the classes and requirements indicated below. The student must formally apply for and be accepted to baccalaureate status. A student may not register for any CS classes numbered 300 or higher without first being admitted to baccalaureate major status, unless prior special permission has been obtained from the department. No Computer Science course numbered 300 or above will count toward the bachelor degree in Computer Science until or unless the student has been formally admitted to the baccalaureate program. The department determines how many new baccalaureate majors will be admitted each year, based upon laboratory facilities, computer resources, and available faculty. To be considered for baccalaureate degree seeking status, a student must have met all of the following requirements: 1. A cumulative grade point average of 2.5 or higher. 2. A grade point average in Computer Science and Math classes of 2.7 or higher. 3. Completion of at least the following classes (or equivalents) with a grade of 2.7 (B-) or better: English EN111; Computer Science 175, 220, and 265; Mathematics 211. Students are ranked according to their grade point average in the required classes listed above. All classes used in the calculation must be taken for letter grades. Credit/no-credit grades are not acceptable. Furthermore, each class may be repeated only once. If a class is repeated, only the second grade received is used. If a student registers for a course and later withdraws, resulting in a grade of W, or if a student receives an incomplete (I) grade, that is considered to be one of the two allowable times to register for the course. If credit is granted for any of the above classes based on advanced placement test scores or courses taken at other schools, grades may be assigned for use in the calculation. Check with a department advisor for details.
