School of Computing and Information Sciences
Information Technology Major The School of Computing and Information Sciences offers a Bachelor of Science degree in Information Technology as a single major. As of the Fall 2010 semester, the requirements for the degree have changed. Courses that are marked with * are for students who declared the major before Fall 2010. Courses marked with + are for students who declare the major after the Summer 2010 semester. Courses marked with a * will only be offered as long as there are enough students to fill the classes. If you want to take these classes, take them as soon as possible. See the University, College & School Requirements for additional requirements needed for graduation. Please see our graphical flowchart and plan of study to help plan your schedule. For those who declared the major before August, 2010, view this flowchart. All students must have completed the following courses (or equivalent) prior to starting the BS in Information Technology program.
Nine credits must be taken outside SCIS. These credits must be selected from the courses for a minor or certificate in another discipline. All nine credits must be taken from the same minor or certificate. Students graduating under the requirements in effect prior to Fall 2010 must take additional courses and complete a minor (not a certificate). All students must complete all of the following courses:
Students must take 5 elective courses. Select two areas of concentration and take at least two courses in those two selected areas (4 courses). The fifth course may be selected from any area of concentration.
All students must complete additional general elective courses to reach a minimum of 120 total credits. Prerequisites can count as general electives. |
