Bachelor of Science in Computer Science - Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning

California State University - Fullerton

The Bachelor of Science in Computer Science offers students a comprehensive foundation that spans a wide range, from theoretical and algorithmic to cutting-edge developments. This foundation equips them to take on varied categories of work, including the necessary theories, principles and practices to design and implement software. The curriculum begins with a sequence of courses, covering programming and data structures. If students have knowledge of these topics, but do not have the courses to transfer, nor AP scores to submit, they may take the Computer Science Placement Examination to waive one or more of these courses. The test may be taken only once and scores are valid for two consecutive semesters. In addition to the requirements for the major, students must meet all other university requirements for a bachelor’s degree. Please consult the Graduation Requirements for the Bachelor’s Degree section in this catalog for complete information. The Bachelor of Science program in Computer Science is accredited by the Computing Accreditation Commission of ABET, under the commission’s General Criteria and Program Criteria for Computer Science Programs. General Education (24 units): All students at Cal State Fullerton are expected to complete prescribed units of General Education that are made up of courses outside of their chosen disciplines. Students seeking a degree in Computer Science have been provided exceptions from some of the General Education requirements. For this reason, it is important that students take the approved G.E. courses for Computer Science majors that are found in their Titan Degree Audit (TDA). Additionally, they should confirm the G.E. courses that are required within their specific programs with their respective advisers. Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning Concentration (15 units): The Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning Concentration provides Computer Science students with knowledge of the fundamental concepts of modern AI and machine learning systems. The program emphasizes both the mathematical background and programming skills to prepare students for entry-level industry positions and graduate study.
