Computer Science – Math/Sci 2 years of engineering calculus through differential equations 1 year and ½ of Physics Several additional math courses – close to a double major in math and computer science Graduates tend to be hired at companies where it is necessary to work on applications with engineers using calculus and physics: –Lawrence Livermore Labs –Naval Weapons Center China Lake Four-year plan is located at: MathSci4YR pdf

Computer Science Systems/Gen One year of calculus One year of physics Systems and General only differ in three courses in the junior and senior years –Systems requires the following courses CSCI-520 Digital Logic Design Theory CSCI-540 Multi User Operating Systems CSCI-542 Systems Design –Whereas General requires 3 Computer Science electives in their place. Other than the above 3 courses, there are no other differences between the systems and general options Most distance learning students select the General option

Computer Science Graphics Has the same basic structure as the Systems and General options The General option elective courses become Graphics courses and a couple more Applied Computer Graphics courses are added to the program

Computer Information Systems No engineering calculus or engineering physics is required Students take Survey of Calculus or Business Calculus Business minor is required Computer courses are similar to Computer Science computer courses
