The General Computing
track is the most flexible route through the Computer Science major. It
provides students with a broad-based background drawing from the entire
spectrum of computing. Depending on the courses taken, students can be
exposed to the design and architecture of computers, the development of
software, and the theory and techniques used in designing efficient computer
programs. Students can also learn about application of computers to problems in
science, in human-computer interaction, and in data management. This track
prepares students for careers in many different areas of computer science.
In addition to the
degree requirements
for all Computer Science majors,
the General Computing track
has the following requirements specific to the track:
Track Foundation
There are no Track Foundation courses specific to this track.
Track Core
Seven courses selected from the following are required:
- CSCI 3202-3,
Introduction to Artificial Intelligence.
- CSCI 3287-3,
