1 Math: We highly recommend MATH 333 Probability and Statistics to replace MATH 105 Elementary Probability and Statistics, particularly for students contemplating advanced or graduate work in computing. We also encourage you to take one or more advanced statistics courses as free electives, such as MATH 341 Statistical Methods II or MATH 344 Regression Analysis both of which require MATH 333 Probability and Statistics as a prerequisite.
2 Independent Study (optionally leading to the Undergraduate Thesis Option): We encourage you to consider an independent study (IS 488) as part of your electives as juniors and seniors. You could then continue with an Undergraduate Thesis (IS 489), which optionally can substitute for IS 491 or IT 491. The thesis option is explained further on the Informatics Department web site. Please consult your advisor as early in your studies as possible to plan appropriately for all of these opportunities.
* Student can take MATH 111 (Calculus I) instead of MATH 138 (General Calculus I)
