Bachelor of Science and Bachelor of Arts with Computer Science
Bachelor of Science and Bachelor of Arts degrees with a Major in Computer Science
The Faculty of Computer Science offers Bachelor of Science and Bachelor of Arts degrees with a Major in Computer Science. The programs of study are similar to the Bachelor of Computer Science, but with more flexibility in selection of elective courses. These programs may be of benefit for students who want to use one of them as a basis to enter other professional programs such as Education, Medicine, or Law. However, unlike the Bachelor of Computer Science degree, it does not meet CSAC accreditation requirements.

Other Required Courses:
Double Majors and Combined Honours
The following degree programs are available to students interested in interdisciplinary studies where the larger number of majors credits is Computer Science: Bachelor of Science (120 credit hours) with Double Major, Bachelor of Science (120 credit hours) with Combined Honours, Bachelor of Arts (120 credit hours) Double Major and Bachelor of Arts (120 credit hours) Combined Honours.
Combined Honours
Students interested in taking honours in Computer Science and another subject as a combined program should consult the honours advisor through whom a suitable course of study can be arranged.
A combined honours program may well be an appropriate choice for many students. If a student is contemplating graduate work, it should be borne in mind that the work in either subject of a combined honours program may be insufficient for entry to a regular graduate program, and that a qualifying year may be necessary.
Students who wish to arrange interdisciplinary programs (with fields such as Mathematics, Physics, Psychology, and others) are invited to discuss their interests with the appropriate department and the Undergraduate Chair of the Faculty of Computer Science.
