X. Degree Programs

Bachelor of Computing (B.Comp.)

Schedule of Studies

Since many courses are offered in only one semester and course prerequisites place an ordering on courses, the following program of studies is designed so that students can schedule their courses over 8 semesters of study. Students deviating from this schedule must consult with their academic advisor. This schedule assumes a Fall/Winter semester sequence.
