  • Discrete math, introduction to creative software, computer programming and practice, object-oriented programming and practice, data structure, digital circuits, computer architecture, operating system, computer networks, algorithm, system programming and practice
  • Double major mandatory courses: (same as the mandatory courses for major 1)
  • Minor mandatory courses: (same as the mandatory courses for major 1)
  • Double major and minor require more liberal art credits for each area than major 1; hence, additional liberal art credits must be satisfied for each area. (Whether the requirements for each area have been satisfied has to be determined based on the criteria of major 1.)
