*CSE Elective1 - Elective with at least one unit of data structures
NAU LIBERAL STUDY REQUIREMENTS| Social and Political Worlds (3-6 credits) | Aesthetic & Humanistic Inquiry (3-6 cr.) | Cultural Understanding (3-6 credits) |
ADDITIONAL LIBERAL STUDY REQUIREMENTS Six additional elective credits are required in either the Social and Political Worlds, Aesthetic and Humanistic Inquiry or Cultural Understanding (a foreign language must not be the native language of the student).
| Social and Political Worlds | Aesthetic & Humanistic Inquiry | Cultural Understanding |
Computer Science and Engineering majors are required to complete at least 9 hours of professional electives, selected in consultation with the student's academic advisor. Electives should be chosen to provide depth in areas of particular interest to the student.
In general, any CSE course numbered 300 or above that is not otherwise required for the major may be submitted as a general professional elective. Electives that satisfy the CSE elective1 requirements are marked below. With the prior approval of the department chair, an advanced course from another department (especially electrical engineering and mathematics) may be substituted for one professional elective.
Computer Science and Engineering professional electives currently include the following (all carry three hours credit):
| CSE 410 | Logic Design Theory | |
| CSE 420 | Advanced Digital Design | |
| CSE 450 | (1) | Introdution to Parallel Computing |
| CSE 455 | (1) | Modeling in Reactive Systems |
| CSE 470 | (1) | Introduction to Intelligent Systems |
| CSE 481 | (1) | Compilers |
| CSE 485 | * | Undergraduate Research |
| CSE 497 | * | Independent Study |
(1) Electives with at least one unit of data structures. Students are required to complete one of these courses as CSE Elective1
*NOTE: No more than six hours of Undergraduate Research and Independent Study may be submitted as professional electives.
NAU LIBERAL STUDIES REQUIREMENTS
The NAU liberal studies requirements are anticipated to be met by UC 101 (university colloquium), ENG 105 and MAT 136 (foundations), PHY 161 (lab science), PHY 262 and CHM 151 (science/applied science), and 15 elective credits made up of 3-6 elective credits in each of social and political worlds, aesthetic and humanistic inquiry and cultural understanding. A CSE junior level writing experience and a CSE capstone experience must still be identified
