Program Information

All courses must be passed with a “C-” (1.7) or better to be counted in the certificate.
Credits older than 10 years must be approved by the CSCY Department Chair before being allowed to count towards the major due to the rapid change in the industry.
This program requires the completion of MATH 1060 - Trigonometry or MATH 1210 - Calculus I (or equivalent test score). Students who are not prepared for this math course may need additional math credits/preparation, which may affect time to graduation. Please consult your Student Success Advisor for more information.
