Note: This is only a sample program as there is a wide range of courses that may be taken.

* These courses should be selected so as to satisfy both General Education and Arts and Sciences requirements. See the General Catalog for specifics concerning these requirements.

At least one social science course must be at the 500 level or higher or carry a prerequisite in the same department in which it is offered.

Students in B.S. programs who take two courses in one foreign language may use these to satisfy the Literary or Rhetorical Arts and Western Heritage requirements. Four courses in one foreign language are required for the B.A. in mathematics. All students may use the fourth course in a single foreign language sequence to satisfy the International Studies requirement.

Students may satisfy the International Studies requirement at the same time they satisfy requirements in the humanities or the social sciences.

* * The following courses are recommended for the electives:

MATH 630 Introduction to Complex Analysis (fall semester)
MATH 634 Advanced Calculus II (spring semester)
CIS 301 Logical Foundations of Programming
CIS 308 C/C++ Language Laboratory
ENGL 516 Written Communication for the Sciences
STAT 511 Introductory Probability and Statistics II (spring semester)
