Degree Requirements

The CS and CE programs each require you to take 180 total credits to graduate.  You will need to fulfill a General Education component, a Mathematics and Science component, and a Computer (Science or Engineering) component that consists of required classes and senior electives.

The CSE requirements in the following documents are current as of autumn 2011.

Please refer to the CSE Satisfactory Progress Policy for information about minimum course load, dropping required courses, and other academic policies and procedures.

Check out the flow-chart below to help you understand the required CS and CE core 300 level courses and their pre-requisities.

Autumn 2009-Winter 2010: Transition Requirements

Students completing their first CSE 300-level course in autumn 2009 or winter 2010 fall under the transition requirements. These requirements are more flexible than either the old or the new requirements. Some adjustment to the Computer Engineering transition degree requirements may still be needed. Note: Transition requirements may make more sense after reading the new requirements.

NOTE that CSE keeps complete archives of prior year degree requirements if needed by alumni or potential employers.
