Students in the Computer Science Honors major, in addition to fulfilling all the requirements for a BS in Computer Science, will complete additional coursework and a research project. Honors students must maintain an overall GPA of 3.25 plus at least a 3.6 in Computer Science and required CSHO courses. The program requirements include additional math coursework, three out of four selected CS and ECE courses, a research seminar and project, and a graduate level course. It is especially suitable for students planning on graduate level coursework, though it also offers advantages to students seeking employment. The track is designed to prepare students to become programmers who can build low-level software that uses or runs inside an operating system, system tools for other users (e.g., compilers and assemblers) and programs that communicate over a computer network or the Internet (e.g., web servers).
