So I just changed my major from Education (English) to Computer Science with a Minor in Business Maatteus Send a noteboard - 12/09/2009 07:23:23 PM
or: I've lurked nearly 10 years at the other site, might as well lurk here too!


SO I took the plunge on thursday and switched my major from a concurrent english and education degree, to a honours bach. in COSC with a minor in business. If there are any geeks or business-savy people who have any pointers I'd love to hear them! My courses as they stand are:

First Semester
-----------------------------
MATH 1P12 - Linear Algebra I
MATH 1P66 - Mathematical Reasoning
MGMT 1P51 - Understanding Canadian Business
ACTG 1P91 - Introduction to Financial Accounting
ENTR 2P51 - Introduction to Entrepreneurship

Second Semester
-------------------------------
MATH 1P67 - Mathematics for Computer Science
MATH 1P98 - Basic Statistical Methods
COSC 1P02 - Introduction to Computer Science
COSC 1P03 - Data Structures and Abstraction

16 hours of class first semester, 21 2nd semester

I was going into my 3rd year as an education major. I could do the honours Cosc. Bachelors in 3 years - but im choosing to do the minor in business which will require another year.

Glad to see the new site looking so nice!
