Note about CIS 115 & CSC 151: To be best prepared for Computer Programming II at WSSU, we encourage students to complete both CIS 115 and CSC 151 at the NCCC.
Note about CAA Natural Science Course: Students are required to complete an additional Biological and Physical Science elective.
The option electives taken during the junior and senior years allow exploration of a depth area of computer science, such as Networking, e-Commerce, Database Systems, Computer Graphics, Information Security, Space Science, High Performance Computing, Theoretical Computer Science; or a second discipline, such as mathematics, accounting, management, and marketing.
A minimumgrade of “C” or better is required in each computer science, science, and mathematics course required by the major.
