Tracks (9 Credit Hours)

Technical Electives (9 Credit Hours)

9 credit hours of CS courses at the 3000 level or above as approved by the adviser. The advisor may approve other sufficiently technical courses from other departments to satisfy the Technical elective requirements. Technical electives cannot be satisfied by courses that are part of the student’s chosen track. Students may not use CS 4340  to satisfy this requirement.

Engineering Leadership (9 Credit Hours)

Choose 9 credit hours from the following:

• CS 3377 - Ethical Issues in Computing
• CS 4360 - Technical Entrepreneurship
• CS 5317 - Leadership for Architecting Software Systems
• CEE 2302 - Authentic Leadership
• CEE 3302 - Engineering Communications
• CEE 5302 - Leadership in Development Sector
• CEE 5303 - Data-Science-Enabled Citizen Engineering
• OREM 2375 - Cultural and Ethical Implications of Technology
• OREM 3308 - Engineering Management

• Students who are also enrolled in a major or minor program in the Cox School of Business may request leadership courses from these programs to substitute for the Computer Science leadership courses. These requests must be ap- proved by the Computer Science Department. No more than 6 hours of courses outside Lyle may be used toward this requirement. Other courses at the 3000 level or above may be petitioned to meet this requirement with prior approval by advisor. CS courses used to meet this requirement may not also meet a CS elective requirement.

Total for the Major Only: 60 Credit Hours

Note: All computer science majors must earn a grade of C- or better in the computer science core courses and CS 2353  in fulfillment of the requirements for the major.
