See relevant calendar entries for a listing of program requirements.  
Domain Knowledge Requirement for Practicing Computer Science Professionals Go to top of document
It is widely recognized that the professional practice of Computer Science requires Domain Knowledge - specialized knowledge of the area in which computing is being applied. This phenomenon is often described as Computer Science + X. In order to prepare students for professional practice, the BSc (Honours) Co-op and BSc with Major programs require the completion of the domain knowledge requirement. Students following the BSc (Honours) program must either complete the courses for graduate school entry (see below) or complete the Domain Knowledge Requirement. The domain knowledge requirement can be fulfilled either by completing a minor in a subject other than Applied Computing or by completing a cohesive set of at least 4.0 credits in an area other than Computer Science or Applied Computing approved by the Computer Science Undergraduate Program Adviser.  
Graduate School Entry Requirement Go to top of document
Students pursuing the BSc (Honours) program must either complete the courses for graduate school entry: two additional credits from COSC 3P99, 4F90, 4P03, 4P42, MATH 2P12, 2P81, 2P92, 2P97, 2P98, 3P12, 3P73, 4P71, 4P92; or the Domain Knowledge Requirement (see above).  
Co-op Program Go to top of document
The Computer Science Co-op program combines academic and work terms over a four and one-half year period. Students spend one and one-half years in an academic setting studying the fundamentals of computer programming, computer organization, algorithms, data structures and ethics prior to their first work placement. Successful completion of courses in the core areas of Computer Science provides the necessary academic background for the work experience. In addition to the current fees for courses in academic study terms, Co-op students are assessed an annual administration fee (see the Schedule of Fees). Eligibility to continue is based on the student's major average and non-major average. Students will be required to maintain a minimum 70 percent major average and a minimum 60 percent non-major average in order to continue in the Co-op program. If a student subsequently raises his/her major average to 70 percent, the student may be readmitted only if approved by the Computer Science Co-op Admissions Committee. All students in the Co-operative Education program are required to read, sign and adhere to the terms of the Student Regulations Waiver and Co-op Student Handbook (brocku.ca/co-op/current-students/co-op-student-handbooks) as articulated by the Co-op Programs Office. In addition, eligibility to continue in the co-op option is based on the student's major average and non-major average, and the ability to demonstrate the motivation and potential to pursue a professional career. Students must register for each four-month co-operative education work term. Once students are registered in a co-op work term, they are expected to fulfill their commitment. If the placement accepted is for more than one four-month work term, students are committed to complete all terms. Students may not withdraw from or terminate a work term without permission from the Director, Co-op Program Office. The Computer Science Co-op program designation will be awarded to those students who have honours standing and have successfully completed a minimum of twelve months Co-op work experience.  
Internship Option Go to top of document
The Internship option combines academic and work experience in a five-year program. It is available in Computer Science honours (single or combined), Computing and Business and Computing and Solid-State Device Technology programs. Students complete the normal four-year honours program and an 8-16 month work placement after second or third year. In order to complete the Internship placement, students will be required to submit an acceptable placement report that will be graded by the Department. In addition to the usual fees for courses, a one-time administration fee will be levied during the work term (see the Schedule of Fees). Students enrolled in the program may apply for admission to the Internship Option during the Fall Term of year 1 or year 2 (depending on whether they plan a work term after year 2 or 3, respectively). As this is a limited enrolment program admission is not guaranteed by attainment of the minimum requirement. Admission will be based on the achievement (as of January of the application year) and maintenance of a minimum 70 percent major average. Prior to the placement, the student must have completed at least 10, but preferably 15 credits, including COSC 1P50, 2P03, 2P89 and one or more of COSC 2P12, 2P13, 3P32, 3P50. The Computer Science Internship Admissions Committee will make admission decisions.  
Applied Computing (APCO) Courses Go to top of document
Courses with the APCO designation are intended for non-Computer Science majors who recognize the need for fluency in computing as a part of their undergraduate program. These courses may be taken individually or as part of a minor. APCO 1P00, 1P01, 1P30, 1P50 and 1P93 may each be taken as a first APCO course. APCO 1P00 is a non-technical introduction to programming and requires no previous experience. APCO 1P01 discusses software tools for word processing, spreadsheets, presentations, databases and searching the internet and anticipates previous exposure to computer use. APCO 1P30 involves programming for interactive media and assumes no prior programming experience but does assume familiarity with computer applications. APCO 1P50 considers effective and ethical use of computers for information acquisition and dissemination. It requires no previous computing skill. APCO 1P93 will usually serve as a second programming course but can also serve as an introductory programming course for those who need a more technical introduction to programming. APCO courses do not count as major credit for COSC (single or combined) majors, Computing and Business, Computing and Network Communications and Computing and Solid-State Device Technology students. Students who have done well in APCO 1P00 and are interested in changing their major to COSC should contact the Department Chair and may be permitted to proceed directly to COSC 1P03.  
Department Facilities Go to top of document
A campus-wide fibre optic network links all the University's academic computing facilities including the department's computers. Campus-wide WiFi provides access to this network from anywhere on campus. The department maintains a 16 core Redhat Linux server that supports the departmental labs and provides students with access to their files wherever they can connect via the internet.
