General Education Refer to General Requirements for the Bachelor of Science requirements. If a Computer Science major does not have the prerequisite skills at entrance, TBE TE1700 is recommended to fill a portion of the WSU Computer Literacy core general education requirement. The MATH QL1040 or MATH 1210 or MATH 3410 course required for the Computer Science AAS degree, which is a pre-requisite to the BS 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 CS CA1010 for one of the CA general education requirements. Refer to the Computer Science Advanced Placement exam notes under the Major Course Requirements for BS Degree To be taken in addition to the requirements for the AAS degree in Computer Science.
