COMPUTER SCIENCE–TECHNICAL
EMPHASIS
This recommended transfer program
meets the requirements for an associate in science degree and the recommendations
of the Illinois Articulation Initiative computer science major panel.
Bachelor's degree programs in computer science encompass two distinct
emphases: the information systems emphasis and the technical emphasis.
The technical emphasis focuses on algorithms, theoretical foundations
of computer science, and development of software. Students should check
individual school requirements before completing the curriculum as outlined.
Admission into many baccalaureate computer science programs is competitive;
completion of the courses outlined below alone does not guarantee admission.

- Approved courses are listed with the requirements for the associate
degrees.
Approved courses are listed with the requirements for the associate degrees.
- Select one course from humanities and one from fine arts. Interdisciplinary
courses may count in either category. Approved courses are listed
with the requirements for the associate degrees.
- ECO 211 and ECO 212 recommended for flexibility to change to the
information systems emphasis.
- Students should try to complete the entire course sequence in calculus
and physics at the same school before transferring, since topics are
covered in different orders by different schools.
