Bachelor of Science, Computer Science (Vancouver Only)

For the major in the Computer Science degree program on the Vancouver campus, students are admitted to the major upon demonstrating they are ready to take MATH 171 (Calculus I) or higher and making their intentions known to the department.

To keep their status as Computer Science majors and to remain in good academic standing, students must pass CS 121, 122, 166, MATH 171, 172, and PHYSICS 201/211 (or their transfer equivalents) with a grade of C or better and maintain a cumulative GPA of 2.0 or higher.

No courses listed in this schedule of studies may be taken on a pass/fail basis. All listed computer science courses, and their prerequisites, must be completed with a grade of C or better.
