Curriculum for Liberal Education Requirements (CLE). (Consult Guide for Curriculum for Liberal Education at http://www.uaac.vt.edu/coreguides/index.html for list of allowable courses for Areas 2, 3, 6 & 7.) Area 1: Writing and Discourse. 6 credits of freshman English. Engl 1105 (3 cr) Engl 1106 (3 cr) Area 2: Ideas, Cultural Traditions, and Values, 6 credits (3 cr) (3 cr) Area 3: Society and Human Behavior, 6 credits (3 cr) (3 cr) Area 4: Scientific Reasoning and Discovery is met by courses required for the major.
Area 5: Quantitative and Symbolic Reasoning is met by courses required for the major. Area 6: Creativity and Aesthetic Experience, 1 credit. While CS majors can meet Area 6 with a one-credit course, taking a three- credit course for this area may help meet the 30-hour non-technical elective requirement discussed in footnote 4. (1 or 3 cr) Area 7: Critical Issues in a Global Context, 3 credits (3 cr) 2. CS/Math double majors take the pair of courses Math 3034, Math 3124 in place of Math 2534, Math 3134. 3. Natural Science Elective/Lab. Computer Science majors must have a minimum of 12 hours of natural science. Of those 12 hours, 8 hours
must be in a sequence. This requirement can be satisfied by taking the required Chem 1035/45 and Phys 2305, and then one of (Chem 1036/46) or Phys 2306. (Chem 1036/46 may not be offered every fall semester.)
Students can also satisfy the sequence requirement by completing an eight hour sequence in Biology in addition to Chem 1035/45 and Phys
2305: to do so, students must complete one of the following sequences: (Bio 1005-6 & 1015-6), or (Bio 1105-6 & 1115-6), or (Bio 1105-6 & 1125-6).
4. Computer Science Non-technical Electives. CS majors must complete 30 credits of non-technical electives. All courses are approved as non-technical electives except those in the sciences (Biology, Chemistry, Geosciences, Physics), the College of
Engineering (all departments including Computer Science), and the mathematical sciences (Mathematics, Statistics). Also excluded are courses listed as technical electives in footnote 7; a course cannot be both a technical and non-technical elective.
5. Computer Science Theory Course. All CS majors must take one of the CS senior-level theory courses: 4104, 4114, 4124. 6. Computer Science 3000/4000 Elective. Students can select any 3-credit CS 3000 or 4000-level course, excluding 4004 and 4014 but including
CS Independent Study (4974) and CS Undergraduate Research (4994), not used to satisfy another requirement. 7. Computer Science Technical Elective. a. Any 3-credit CS 3/4/5000-level course (except 4004 and 4014) not otherwise used to fulfill a Computer Science requirement can be used as a technical elective, including both Independent Study (CS 4974) and Undergraduate Research (CS 4994). b. An approved 4000-level course in another discipline that has significant technical content relevant to the science or application of computer
technology can be used as a technical elective. i. Requests to have a non-CS course approved as a technical elective are made by submitting, prior to taking the course, the
request for substitution form available in the CS Advising Center. This includes non-CS Independent Study (4974) and Undergraduate Research (4994) courses.
ii. Below is a listing of non-CS courses that are approved as technical electives. Note: Many of these courses are restricted to majors other than CS in certain semesters, and virtually all have prerequisites that must be met to be eligible to take the course.

Total Hours and Minimum GPA Requirements: Each student must complete at least 123 semester credit hours with a minimum overall GPA of 2.00 and a minimum in-major GPA of 2.00. The in-major GPA is calculated using all classes with a CS designator except CS 1004, 4004, and 4014. F. Applicable Checksheet and Curriculum for Liberal Education Requirements: Graduation requirements are determined by the checksheet
in effect at the time of graduation (except for University CLE requirements as discussed below). Each checksheet is applicable for an entire calendar year, i.e., the May, Summer, and December completion dates of that year.
Curriculum for Liberal Education requirements are based upon the date of entry to Virginia Tech, which is assumed to be Fall Semester, four years prior to the date of graduation. Students whose date of entry into Virginia Tech differs from that assumed by the checksheet must determine which University CLE Requirements apply to them. Students with questions about this matter should refer to the University CLE guides at http://www.uaac.vt.edu/coreguides/index.html and consult with their advisor.
G. Foreign Language Requirement: Any student who did not complete two years of one foreign language in high school must earn six credits in one language in college-level courses. These credits do not count toward minimum graduation requirements. H. CS Independent Study/Undergraduate Research Credits: Maximum credits, minimum GPA. No more than a total of 6 credits of CS Independent Study (4974) and/or CS Undergraduate Research (4994) may be used to fulfill Computer Science degree requirements. To take Independent Study (2974 or 4974), a minimum overall and in-major GPA of 2.5 is required. To take Undergraduate Research, a minimum overall GPA of 2.5 and an in-major GPA of 3.0 is required. Additionally, at least 6 credits of required CS 3000-level courses must have been completed before CS 4974 or CS 4994 may be taken.
I. Writing Intensive Requirement: Students who entered Virginia Tech prior to Fall 2005 are required to complete the Writing Intensive
requirement. Although ENGL 3764 will satisfy this requirement, students do have the option of taking one of the courses on the following list to satisfy the requirement. Writing Intensive is only for students who entered Virginia Tech prior to Fall 2005.
Writing Intensive Courses Allowed for CS Majors
Warning: Some departments will be phasing out their Writing Intensive courses as the university transitions to departmental Visual Expression, Written & Spoken (ViEWS) requirements. Before you take any course listed below and assume it will meet the Writing Intensive requirement, get written verification from either the instructor or the offering department that the course is still approved as writing intensive for that semester. Note: Many of these courses are restricted to majors other than CS in certain semesters, and virtually all have prerequisites that must be met to be eligible to take the course.

Taking courses elsewhereTaking courses elsewhereTaking courses elsewhere
To take a course at another institution, students should make sure before they attempt a course that it will transfer by completing the following three steps:
1. Contact the college or university that they would like to attend to determine what courses will be offered.
2. Obtain and complete this form, which also is available from 212 Hancock Hall. This form should be completed at least 3 weeks before the beginning of the classes at the non-VT institution. If the course to be transferred is a CS course, the Dean's Office may refer you to the CS Department, which will require you to supply a course syllabus (not just the catalog description of the course) before the transfer request is evaluated. Make sure the course will transfer as you think it will.
3. After the course has been completed, have a copy of your official transcript sent to the Virginia Tech Registrar's Office at: Office of the University Registrar 250 Student Services Building, Mail Code 0134 Virginia Tech Blacksburg, VA 24061
A student may not receive credit for course work taken at another college or university during any period in which the student has been placed on suspension by Virginia Tech for academic or disciplinary reasons.
