Typical requirements
Because computer science is a wide field, courses required to earn a bachelor of computer science degree vary. A typical list of course requirements includes topics such as:[7]
- Computer programming
- Programming paradigms
- Algorithms
- Data structures
- Logic & Computation
- Computer architecture
Some schools may place more emphasis on mathematics and require additional courses such as:[8]
- Linear algebra
- Calculus
- Probability theory and statistics
- Combinatorics and discrete mathematics
- Differential calculus and mathematics
Beyond the basic set of computer science courses, students can typically choose additional courses from a variety of different fields, such as:[9]
- Theory of computation
- Operating systems
- Numerical computation
- Compilers, compiler design
- Real-time computing
- Distributed systems
- Computer networking
- Data communication
- Computer graphics
- Artificial intelligence
- Human-computer interaction
- Information theory
- Software testing
- Information assurance
- Quality assurance
Some schools allow students to specialize in a certain area of computer science.[10][11][12]
