Plus, three electives selected from 300 and 400-level CS courses


(MTH 321  may be used as one of these three electives). A maximum of 4 semester hours of CS 11x-series courses may also be applied toward these elective hours.

Internship/Field Experience:


A student may wish to arrange an off-campus experience with a business, industry, service agency, high school, governmental office, or another appropriate organization. The course credit for an internship depends on the length and the actual learning situation. Students work with the academic adviser to determine the credit. Many of the supervising organizations pay a salary, although this is not necessary. We believe that this is a valuable learning experience for an individual during the junior or senior year. At most only one internship can count for an elective.

Transient Credit Policy:


Students who use transient credit (that is, transfer credit from another college or university) to satisfy course requirements in Westminster’s computer science or computer information systems majors (including any concentrations in the programs) may NOT get transient credit for more than four semester hours of computer science/computer information systems courses outside of Westminster College that are 200 level or above.

These restrictions hold for any external course whether it is a traditional classroom style or online.
