(A) Seven prescribed courses:
An introductory programming course (CIS*1500)
An intermediate programming course (CIS*2500)
An object-oriented programming course (CIS*2430)
A software systems development course (CIS*2750)
A course on data structures (CIS*2520)
A course on discrete structures (CIS*1910 or CIS*2910).
An introductory course on calculus (MATH*1200).
