B.S. in Computer Science Suggested Course Schedules

1. The intro programming sequence (CSC241/CSC242) should be taken by CS majors in the freshman year, i.e. as soon as possible. (The sequence will be offered in fall/winter and winter/spring quarters in AY 2007/2008.)  Incoming freshmen must make sure to take CSC241 by the winter quarter; otherwise they will need to wait a full year to start their programming sequence.
2. MAT130 is a prerequisite for CSC241.  Students who place into MAT130 must take MAT130 in the fall so that they can start the programming sequence in the winter.
3. If a student comes with AP (Advanced Placement) or IB (International Baccalaureate) credit, the student should continue the Java intro sequence as described in http://sr.depaul.edu/credit.shtml.
4. Even though CSC373 has a low prerequisite (CSC211, for example), it should not be taken by an undergraduate student until he/she has matured as a programmer. An undergraduate student will obtain the maximum benefit from the CSC373/374 sequence in their junior year and after taking CSC383 and CSC309.
