Undergraduate Concentration Information
The Department of Computer Science offers several A.B. and Sc.B. concentrations for undergraduates. The undergraduate program is designed to combine educational breadth in the areas of software, hardware, and theoretical computer science with deeper understanding of specialized areas such as software system design, programming languages, machine architecture, artificial intelligence, the analysis of algorithms, and the theory of computation.
Becoming a CS Concentrator
To become a CS concentrator, you must file both a university concentration form and a CS Department Concentration Contract (see the links elsewhere on this page).
Make an appointment with your concentration advisor to go over the forms and discuss the programs.
All concentrators are required to meet with their concentration advisors at least once a year. This is normally done during a designated two-week period in the middle of the fall semester (the dates will be announced several weeks beforehand). Students who don't meet with their advisors during this period are subject to having their computer accounts frozen.
Advanced Placement Credits
The Department of Computer Science does not accept AP credits.
Transfer Credits
No more than two courses may be transferred in from other institutions for concentration credit in CS A.B. degree programs and no more than three courses may be transferred in for concentration credit for CS Sc.B. degree programs.
