Tracks - Related Courses in Computer Science

The computer science degree is comprised of required courses and electives. The overall degree provides a broad understanding of the topics and theory of computer science. Students who wish to pursue a sub-area of CS more deeply are encouraged to take several classes from a "track". Completion of the required number of courses entitles a student to a track certificate upon graduation.
