File: B.S. Computer Sciences
This degree program, recommended by the
Academic Senate in its meeting of March 31, 1983 and
authorized by the Chancellor on August 16, 1983,
was approved by the President on August 22, 1983.
SUBJECT: BACHELOR OF SCIENCE DEGREE IN COMPUTER SCIENCE
The Bachelor of Science degree in Computer Science is jointly offered
by the departments of Computer Science and Engineering and of Mathematics
and Computer Science. Two degree options are offered:
1. Option in Computer Science and Engineering,
offered in the School of Engineering
2. Option in Computer Science and Mathematics,
offered in the School of Humanities
The choice of one of the above tow options and the further selection
of elective courses within that option allow the student a wide
spectrum of degree emphases to suit his/her career goal.
Option in Computer Science and Engineering (code 3-4327)
This option, offered in the Department of electrical Engineering,
is an engineering-oriented computer science program. This
program builds on a strong base of mathematics, physics and engineering
science. It includes a core of standard electrical engineering
courses as well as courses in digital circuitry, computer organization,
programming languages, system software, a microprocessors and computer
applications. Opportunity to explore a particular area of
interest is provided by elective units in the senior year.
Requirements:
Lower Division: Chemistry 111A; Physics
151, 152, 154; at least three units of a life science course; Mathematics
122, 123, 224; EE 101, 210, 242.
Upper Division: Economics 300;
Mathematics 321, 343, 346A or 370A; EE 310, 330, 340, 342, 346,
347L, 370, 370L, 440, 442, 444, 480, 494; approved electives to
total 135 units.
Option in Computer Science and Mathematics (code 3-6667)
The Computer Science and Mathematics option, offered in the Department
of Mathematics, provides a program of study covering the major areas
of computer science and the mathematics used in computer science
and its applications. The core curriculum includes introduction
to programming, computer systems and languages and their compilers,
numerical methods, operating systems, and supporting mathematical
courses. The student has ample opportunity to choose elective
computer-related course work in electrical engineering and business.
Requirements:
Lower Division: English 101 or 317; Electrical
Engineering 101; Mathematics 122, 123, 224, 270, 272; and Physics
151, 152.
Upper Division: Mathematics 321,
323, 325, 326, 343, 324 or 345 or 346, 364A or 380A; 422.
Electrical Engineering 440, 444; and approved electives to total
132 units.
The high school student planning to enter the program for either option
in computer science is advised to pursue a strong program in science
and mathematics. Deficiencies in some of the above areas may
result in an extension of the time to complete a program in this option.
