The Bachelor of Arts degree will be awarded in this major after the successful completion of the major cognate courses and the 13 courses (at least 43 hours) as outlined above.
The Bachelor of Science degree will be awarded upon the completion of all the requirements for the bachelor of arts degree plus an additional two courses (8 credits) consisting either of 2 additional mathematics electives (8 hrs) above the 200 level or an additional year in one science (biology, chemistry, physics, or computer science).
Both degrees require successful completion of all courses with no grade lower than a “C” in those courses counted toward the 43 (54) hours for graduation. Students must make a grade of “C” or better to progress to a subsequent course.
A two-semester sequence of a laboratory science course (biology, chemistry, or physics) at the level of majors in that discipline (6-8 hours) and one semester of a computer science course in a high-level programming language (e.g., a C++, MatLab, or Java course such as CIS 121). Cognate courses must be completed with grades of “C” or better.
