Undergraduate Course Descriptions

Undergraduate courses are those between 1000 and 4999.

Undergraduate students with GPA above 3.0 can take 5xxx and 6xxx level courses with the C1 special permit. This is to follow special interests when a similar undergraduate course is not offered.

Students in Accelerated BS/MS programs, before being reclassified as graduate students, can also take 4xxx, 5xxx, or 6xxx courses to count in graduate standing. Consult with your advisor.

Notes on Upcoming Changes

This section is used to note upcoming or recent relevant changes.

New Courses

In FS26 we will offer Cmp Sci 4890 with the topic "Introduction to AI Security".

Language/Program Changes

We are in the transition period between C++ and Python in the initial courses. This also impacts prerequisites in a number of other Cmp Sci courses. Before the impact is fully complete, here is the guide to Cmp Sci prerequisites.

• If you have the original (currently listed) prerequisites to a course, you can go ahead and enroll in the course if desired.
• Otherwise, if you desire to enroll in a course and don't have the original prerequisites, check if you have the upcoming (not shown in the Bulletin yet) prerequisites. If you do, your faculty advisor or college advisor can enroll you in each such course.
• Consult with the department Chair if unsure.
