University of Michigan - Dearborn: College of Engineering & Computer Science

Current College of Engineering and Computer Science (CECS) undergraduate students majoring in Computer and Information Science (CIS) or in Software Engineering (SE) may pursue a concurrent Bachelor of Science (B.S.) degree in CIS Mathematics. This makes it possible to earn two degrees concurrently: a principal B.S. degree in CIS or in SE and a separate B.S. degree in CIS Mathematics. Both degrees must be earned at the same time.

The credits from Mathematics 216 and from the mathematics courses listed under Roman numeral III below cannot be used as credits for the principal degree, but must be taken in addition to the 120 credits for the B.S. degree in CIS or the B.S. degree in SE. Math 205 or 215 likewise cannot be used by CIS-IS option students as credit for the CIS-IS degree.

The B.S. in CIS Mathematics degree requires a minimum of thirty credits in mathematics courses, as follows:

Fourteen (14) credits of mathematics courses already required as part of the B.S. degree in CIS or the B.S. degree in SE: MATH 115 (4), MATH 116 (4), MATH 217 (2) [or Math 227], and CIS 175 (4) Discrete Structures.
Six (6) credits from the following two courses:

MATH 205 (3 credits) or 215 (4 credits) Calculus III

Note: Calculus III is required for the SE degree and for the CIS-CS option degree; it must also be taken by CIS-IS option students as part of the requirements for the concurrent B.S. degree in CIS Mathematics.

The following CECS graduate courses may also be used towards the CIS Mathematics degree: CIS 451, 532, 551, 552; ECE 555, 560, 567, 580; IMSE 505, 506, 510, 511; ME 518, 519, provided that a minimum of nine (9) hours is taken from the Mathematics department (MATH) courses in list III above, and that permission to take a graduate course is granted.

Current CECS students majoring in CIS or in Software Engineering who wish to pursue this dual degree option need to declare CIS Mathematics as their concurrent major. This is done at the CECS Student Records and Advising Office, 2000 Engineering Complex.
