- Three semesters of calculus through Math 180, 200, or 350
- Math 520 or 540
Writing
A student must take at least one course that satisfies the
CS Department Writing Requirement.
OR
Pass or place out of French 200, German 120, or Russian 200.
Concentration Requirements (14 or 15 courses)
Core - Math

Core - Computer Science
- (CSCI 150 and CSCI 160) or (CSCS 170 and CSCS 180) or CSCI 190
- Two of
- CSCI 310
- CSCI 320
- CSCI 510
Advanced Mathematics
- Three 1000-level Mathematics courses.
Advanced Computer Science
Three advanced courses in Computer Science. These courses must be at the 1000-level or higher. The three courses must include a pair of courses with a coherent theme. A list of approved pairs may be found at the approved-pairs web page.
Additional Courses
- Three 100-level courses chosen from Mathematics, Computer Science, Applied Mathematics, or related areas. These must be approved by the concentration advisor.
- A capstone course in Computer Science or Mathematics: a one-semester course, normally taken in the student's last undergraduate year, in which the student (or group of students) use a significant portion of their undergraduate education, broadly interpreted, in studying some current topic in depth, to produce a culminating artifact such as a paper or software project.
