Any course with “Computer Science I” in the title, Course unit(s): 1
CSI 111 - Computer Science II Course unit(s): 1
CSI 210 - Software Engineering Course unit(s): 1
CSI 220 - Data Structures & Algorithms Course unit(s): 1
CSI 240 - Computer Organization Course unit(s): 1
CSI 370 - CUE: Computer Science Seminar Course unit(s): 1
MTH 120 - Discrete Mathematics Course unit(s): 1
STA 119 - Statistical Analysis Course unit(s): 1 OR
MTH 226 - Linear Algebra Course unit(s): 1

Three Electives:

Any 3 additional courses with a CSI prefix and numbered 300 or above.

Computer Science Culminating Undergraduate Experience (CUE)

The computer science CUE engages each student in an intellectually rigorous experience that draws upon knowledge acquired within the major. This is normally done by completing CSI 370 - CUE: Computer Science Seminar . With faculty approval, an independent study or other project may also be counted as the CUE.

Computer Science Placement

If a Computer Science major places into and earns course credit for CSI 111 Computer Science II without taking CSI 10x Computer Science I, then the major requirement for CSI 10x Computer Science I is waived. However, the student will not get a course unit for CSI 10x Computer Science I unless the student transfers an equivalent course from another institution to Muhlenberg. Placement into an advanced course does NOT confer any course unit credit for prerequisite courses to that advanced course.
