The Computer Science + Computer Engineering Track is designed for students interested in pursuing careers that require a strong computer programming background. Students on this track will be well-positioned for a degree in Computer Science, Computer Engineering, or Information Technology. Students who have little or no programming experience may need to seek additional support outside of class.

Although it is said to be designed for students with programming experience, all of the computer science courses within the track do not have programming knowledge as a prerequisite.

The Computer Science track was introduced to the Class of 2018. Pathways within the computer science track will be introduced to the Class of 2023.

3 hours CSCE 2100 or 2110 or MATH

2700 or 2730 or 3410 or 3680

3 hours
PHYS 1710 3 hours PHYS 2220 3 hours

**MATH 1720 (or higher) 3 hours PSCI 2305 or 2306 3 hours

*This was restricted to ENGL 2321, 2326, 2331, 2341, or 2351 in the Fall 2020 semester.

**Math above 1720 is optional for second year students.

TAMS originally planned to offer a cybersecurity sequence for the Class of 2022, offering CSCE 1035/1045 instead of 1030/1040. This sequence was cancelled due to schedule conflicts with MATH 1710.
