Note: Computer science majors are not allowed to<br />
count CSCI-A 201 Introduction to Programming toward<br />
the minor. No student may count both CSCI-A 201<br />
Introduction to Programming and CSCI-C 101 Computer<br />
Programming I toward the minor.<br />
At least 3 credit hours from each of the areas of computer<br />
science or mathematics, philosophy, and psychology,<br />
chosen from the courses listed above, must be included in<br />
the program, subject to the following exception. Because<br />
no course can count toward both a major and a minor,<br />
students who major in one of the departments listed<br />
above (mathematics, computer science, philosophy, or<br />
psychology) may be allowed to count an extra course in<br />
one of the other departments toward the cognitive science<br />
minor if they need to apply all courses listed above in their<br />
major area toward that major. This substitution is subject<br />
to the approval of the Cognitive Science Committee.<br />
All minor programs require approval by the Cognitive<br />
Science Committee. Courses not listed above may be<br />
included with permission of the committee. Such courses<br />
are not restricted to the areas of mathematics, computer<br />
science, psychology, and philosophy; there may also be<br />
appropriate courses from anthropology, linguistics, or<br />
neuroscience, among others.<br />

offered by the School of Business and Economics.<br />
The Bachelor of Science degree program follows the<br />
guidelines set out by the Association for Computing<br />
Machinery (ACM) and Institute of Electrical and<br />
Electronic Engineers (IEEE), the leading professional<br />
computing societies. Students in this degree program<br />
complete a core curriculum that builds an overall<br />
understanding of computers, computing environments,<br />
and theoretical issues. The degree prepares students to<br />
enter challenging computing careers in the workplace or<br />
to embark on postgraduate programs in computing.<br />
The Master of Science in Applied Mathematics and<br />
Computer Science is offered jointly with the Department<br />
of Mathematical Sciences. Students in the program take<br />
advanced courses in both computer science and applied<br />
mathematics, with emphasis on real-world problems<br />
and applications. A complete description of this program<br />
begins on page 259.<br />
The minor in Cognitive Science is offered jointly with<br />
the departments of mathematical sciences, philosophy,<br />
and psychology. A complete description of this program<br />
begins on page 168.<br />
The Bachelor of Science in Informatics and the minor in<br />
informatics are offered jointly with a number of other<br />
departments at IU <strong>South</strong> <strong>Bend</strong>. A complete description<br />
of this program begins on page 183.<br />
Scheduling of Computer Science Courses<br />
To help students make long-range curriculum plans, the<br />
department attempts to offer courses in a predictable<br />
fashion. Courses are offered both in the daytime and in<br />
the evenings (5:30 p.m. or later).<br />
Any student who intends to major or minor in computer<br />
science or obtain a departmental certificate should<br />
contact the chairperson of the Department of Computer<br />
and Information Sciences as soon as possible to arrange<br />
for academic advising.<br />
Placement Examination<br />
Students planning to enroll in CSCI-C 101 Computer<br />
Programming I must place at Level 3 of the mathematics<br />
placement examination before registering for the course.<br />
The department offers a Bachelor of Science in Computer<br />
Science, a Master of Science in Applied Mathematics and<br />
Computer Science, minors in Computer Science and<br />
Computer Applications, and certificates in Computer<br />
Programming, Advanced Computer Programming,<br />
Computer Applications, and Technology Administration.<br />
The Department of Computer and Information Sciences<br />
offers minors in Informatics and Cognitive Science and a<br />
Bachelor of Science in Informatics, in collaboration with<br />
other departments. It also provides support to the Master<br />
