Software Engineering Certificate Requirements

The Software Engineering Specialization requires that the student complete the B.S. requirements with the following additional requirements.

All the following courses must be taken.

Hours Courses

3 CS 241 Systems Programming

3 CS 411 Database Systems

3 CS 421 Programming Languages and Compilers

3 CS 425 Distributed Systems

3 CS 431 Embedded Systems or CS 433 Computer System Organization

3 CS 473 Algorithms or CS 475 Formal Models of Computation

Students must also take CS 427 Software Engineering I and CS 429 Software Engineering II. These courses satisfy the Advanced Composition requirement. It is assumed that students in the Software Engineering Specialization program will not take the senior project but will take these two courses instead.

Students must take two courses from the following list. Other software-oriented courses may be used, subject to approval by the Director of Undergraduate Programs:
