For transition plans and course equivalency tables, please click hereThe Bachelors of Science in Computer Science consists of three elements:
Liberal Studies ProgramThe Liberal Studies Program at DePaul University is the general education portion of the curriculum at DePaul University. Topics include: First Year Program, Sophomore Seminar in Multiculturalism, Junior Experiential Learning and a Senior Capstone. For CTI information, please see the Liberal Studies homepage. Concentration ClassesThe Computer Science concentrations consist of the following:Computer Science ConcentrationThis concentration is designed for students who want a solid foundation in traditional computer science. It is more theoretical and technical and requires a more extensive analytical background. This concentration is designed to prepare students for advanced studies or employment in computer science where extensive programming is required. The requirements are as follows: Nineteen (19) Liberal Studies courses (see above) plus the following 29 courses. Although all 29 courses are required, the grouping of the courses into First-Year, Sophomore, Junior, and Senior courses is a recommendation only. See your advisor for help in choosing your classes.First Year:
Sophomore:
Junior:
Senior:
Open Electives for Computer Science ConcentrationEight courses to be chosen in consultation with students advisor.
Note: PHL/REL/MGT 228 Business, Ethics, and
Society is a required course that is already credited in Liberal
Studies. Data Analysis ConcentrationThis concentration emphasizes computer-based statistical analysis of data. It looks at the storage, retrieval, and post-processing of data from database systems. The concentration includes programming and design of applications; it develops a strong foundation in statistical concepts and theories and puts them into practice using statistical software. The requirements are as follows: Nineteen (19) Liberal Studies courses (see above) plus the following 29 courses. Although all 29 courses are required, the grouping of the courses into First-Year, Sophomore, Junior, and Senior courses is a recommendation only. See your advisor for help in choosing your classes.

Open Electives for Data Analysis/Database ConcentrationNine courses to be chosen in consultation with student’s advisor. Note: PHL/REL/MGT 228 Business, Ethics, and Society is a required course that is already credited in Liberal Studies.Note: Grades for all courses in the students major and allied fields (i.e. non-Liberal Studies and non-Open Elective) must be 'C' or better. Grades of 'C-' may be accepted provided the overall grade point average in the major is 2.0 or better. Software Engineering Honors ConcentrationThe Honors Software Engineering (HSE) concentration has been designed for students who are interested in studying advanced software development techniques and technologies. Because of its advanced nature, much of this material is normally accessible only to graduate students. It is therefore only available to students with a strong academic background. Furthermore, students must apply for admission to the program. Students should apply for the HSE concentration by the end of the winter quarter of their sophomore year, and will be notified of their acceptance (pending completion of requirements) in the spring quarter. Progress will be reviewed at the end of the third year to determine eligibility for continuing to the fourth year. Review is automatic for all students, but students may opt out of review and voluntarily change to another concentration. In addition to the Nineteen (19) Liberal Studies courses (see above) required for all concentrations, the following courses are also required. Note that the grouping of courses into First-Year, Sophomore, Junior, and Senior courses is a recommendation only. See your advisor for help in choosing your classes. Also, note that courses designated First-Year, and Sophomore, would usually be completed before admission to the concentration. First Year (prior to admission into the honors concentration) - 5 courses
Sophomore Year (prior to admission into the honors concentration) - 7 courses
Junior Year (after admission into the honors concentration) - 6 courses:
Senior Year (after admission into the honors concentration) - 7 courses
Students may also take other advanced SE graduate classes or CSC535 - Formal Semantics of Programming Languages as an independent study, by arrangement with the instructor, subject to approval of the program director. Open Electives for Software Engineering Honors ConcentrationFour open electives are to be chosen in consultation with the advisor. Note: PHL/REL/MGT 228 Business, Ethics, and Society is a required course that is already credited in Liberal Studies. Note: To satisfy the requirements of the HSE concentration, students must earn a grade of B or better for all junior and senior year courses (A- or better for non-honors sections). Telecommunications ConcentrationThis concentration is designed to provide focused coursework in networking technologies, including detailed instruction in data communications, local area networks, and voice telecommunications networks. Nineteen (19) Liberal Studies courses (see above) plus the following 29 courses. Although all 29 courses are required, the grouping of the courses into First-Year, Sophomore, Junior, and Senior courses is a recommendation only. See your advisor for help in choosing your classes.
