Roosevelt University

Computer Science, BS

This program follows the traditional computer science curriculum with its emphasis on mathematics and computing systems theory. It prepares students to pursue careers in highly technical areas such as systems programming and software engineering, or to go on to pursue graduate degrees in computer science or telecommunications.

Requirements

The final 30 semester hours of the degree must be taken at Roosevelt University, with at least 15 of these in the computer science major; at most 60 semester hours may be applied to the degree at the 100 level. At least 63 semester hours must be in non-computing courses. A minor in mathematics is required.

This degree has a specific natural science requirement. Students must take a sequence of two laboratory courses in natural science (e.g., BIOL 121/BIOL 122, or CHEM 101/CHEM 202) and one additional course in natural science. See an advisor for details.
