Computer Science

May be elected as a departmental concentration program

Concetration Effective: Fall 2002 | previous requirements

Pre-Concentration Requirements

To enroll in the CS-LS&A program a student should first complete 5 pre-declaration courses. These are: MATH 115, MATH 116, MATH 215, EECS 203, and EECS 280. Performance in these classes is indicative of student aptitude for the CS program, and students who do not perform well are discouraged from continuing. Students must achieve a 2.7 GPA over all attempts at the 5 prerequisite courses and have at least a C in each course. Students may not repeat a course more than once (i.e., a maximum of two attempts at a course).

Concentration Program. EECS 281, EECS 370, EECS 376, EECS 496 (the new capstone design course in computing), and a probability/statistics course (see department for acceptable choices).

At least 10 credits of approved computer science courses at the 400-level or above, including a course approved as satisfying the Major Design Experience (MDE) taken concurrently with EECS 496 and TCHNCLCM 496. The Department maintains a list of acceptable MDE courses. A maximum of 4 credits of EECS 499 can be used as technical elective credits and only in the category of flexible technical electives.

At least 8 credits of advanced electives, which are either additional computer science courses at the 400 level or above, or courses approved as upper level CS electives. See department for the current acceptable choices. (Note: The approved electives list for the new CS program is not the same as for the old program.)

At least 8 credits of flexible technical electives, which are courses satisfying either of the previous two elective categories, or computer science courses at the 300-level or above, or approved courses at the 200-level or above that are required by another science, engineering, or math program (see department for acceptable courses).

Three credits of technical communications, including TCHNCLCM 281 (1 credit) taken concurrently with EECS 281, and TCHNCLCM 496 (2 credits) taken concurrently with EECS 496.

Comprehensive and up-to-date information about the computer science program can be found on the web at: http://www.eecs.umich.edu/eecs/undergraduate/computer_science.html

Honors Concentration. Outstanding students may wish to elect an Honors concentration in Computer Science. Information about Honors requirements can be found in the EECS Undergraduate Advising Office, 3415 EECS and on the Departmental web site: http://www.eecs.umich.edu/.
