Computer Science (Games)
The undergraduate program in computer science is an interdisciplinary program leading to the Bachelor of Science in Computer Science. The program is designed to provide both an academic and professional orientation.
General admission requirements for the undergraduate program are the same as those of the university and the USC Viterbi School of Engineering and include 3 to 5 units of mathematics and one unit of science (biology, chemistry or physics) together with satisfactory scores on the Scholastic Aptitude Test and Achievement Tests.
A grade of C (2.0) or better is required for each of the core courses CSCI 103, CSCI 170, CSCI 104 and CSCI 201.
Courses with a grade of C- or below must be repeated; courses may only be retaken once.
Departmental approval is required in order to retake a course.
Students who do not satisfy the degree requirement after repeating a class will be disqualified from the program.
A cumulative grade point average of C (2.0) is required for all courses taken at USC as well as all upper division courses applied toward the major, regardless of the department in which the courses are taken. Candidates must complete general education requirements; see the General Education Program.
