OPENS DOORS
All COSC majors must do COSC326 Effective Programming, which is offered in both semesters, and in Summer School.
Also, COSC majors must do at least three of:
Semester 1
COSC341 Theory of Computing
COSC342 Computer Graphics
COSC343 Artificial Intelligence
COSC301 Network Management (until 2016 this paper was called TELE301)
Semester 2
COSC344 Databases Theory and Applications
COSC346 Object-Oriented Programming
Summer School
COSC360 Computer Game Design
Whole year
COSC345 Software Engineering
For all of the above (except for COSC301) COSC242 is a prerequisite. For COSC341 and COSC342, MATH160 is also a prerequisite.
Of these papers, COSC341 is required for Honours and should be considered by anyone wishing to do postgraduate study, while COSC344, 345, and 346 are particularly relevant if you plan to enter employment as a programmer immediately after completing third year, without undertaking postgraduate study.
