BS Major in Computer Science 06-07:   Starting with Math 10 Precalculus The definitive source for program requirements is the UVM catalog.  Your specific sequence may be different from this one. Responsibility for completion of degree requirements rests with you, the student. Read the catalog and plan your course sequence carefully. Contact your academic advisor in the Computer Science Department if you have questions. The minimum number of academic credits required is 120 plus 2 PEAC credits = 122.  This "sample" program shows 120 academic credits. You must add in the 2 PEAC credits.  To complete the degree in the minimum number of credits, the required Minor must also be fulfilled within these 120 credits.   SEMESTER FIRST YEAR 1st 2nd CS 21, Computer Prog.

Chemistry 1 or Biology 1 is typically chosen as the first Science Elective since MATH 21 is a prerequisite for Physics 31/21. Biology 2 may actually be taken prior to Biology I. Physics: The CS Department recommends Physics 31/21 and 42/22 as Science Electives due to its relevance in the computing field. Physics is needed for some Minors (eg. EE). It is not, however, an absolute requirement. See Science requirements. e) Odd Credits:  Depending on your course selections you may need 1 or 2 elective credits to meet the minimum. However, you may need to take a 3 credit course because 1 or 2 credit courses are relatively rare.  A 4-credit course (rather than 3) may also give you the odd credit. 3CS requirements include"224 or 243". This program shows the selection of 243. Note that MATH 173 is a prerequisite for CS 224. 4MATH requirements include "two of 121, 124, 173, 271". This program shows the selection of 124 and 173. There are alternative selections.
