Computer Science (bs) in Georgia Institute of Technology

The undergraduate degree in computer science (CS) offered by the College of Computing provides a solid foundation of knowledge and skills for applying digital processes effectively to issues of broad interest in a global society. Our program is based on a unique concept, Threads™ , a significant College of Computing innovation in undergraduate CS education. The curriculum builds on a base of fundamentals in programming and computational theory to allow each student the opportunity to explore a variety of computing paths in depth. There are eight Threads, each providing a focused journey through a broad spectrum of course offerings at Georgia Tech in preparation for a distinctive future in a changing and interconnected world. Each student selects two Threads to fulfill the requirements for an accredited Bachelor of Science degree in computer science. It is at the intersection of the two paths that the unique synergistic value of this educational experience is realized. Graduates will leave the College of Computing fully aware of the limitless potential of their dynamic discipline and be able to adapt and continuously add value to society throughout their careers.

The Threads™ represent partial paths through the curriculum. Thus, a student weaves a degree from these Threads. Students are not forced to make Thread decisions very early in their academic careers; however, they may if they want. We define the Threads so they are flexible enough to allow for a variety of technical and creative experiences. Threads are coherent enough that students develop computing skills even if their focus shifts as they go along.

The CS curriculum also offers opportunities in undergraduate research and international study. In addition to the standard four-year plan, a five-year cooperative plan is offered for students who wish to combine their academic education with industry experience.

The undergraduate program requires:

• a total of 124 credit hours for graduation, plus
• a two-hour Wellness course.
• With the exception of free electives, all Bachelor of Science degree coursework must be taken on a letter-grade basis.
• Up to six hours of free electives may be taken on a pass/fail basis.
• No 1000- or 2000-level HPS hours or precalculus hours (currently MATH 1113) may be used as free electives.
• No course that covers the same material as other courses in a student's plan of study can be used as a free elective.
• All required CS courses, whether Thread or non-Thread, must be completed with a C or better to be counted toward degree requirements.
• All courses listed as required for a Thread, whether CS or non-CS, must be completed with a C or better to be counted toward degree requirements.
