Program Overview

Students intending to enter this program at the freshman level should have completed two years of algebra and one semester of trigonometry in high school. One year each of high school geometry and physics, as well as basic knowledge of computer organization and programming, are very desirable.

All lower division courses (course numbers below 300) included among the degree requirements are available at many community colleges in California; students intending to enter the program upon transferring to San Francisco State University from a community college should take as many of those courses there as possible.

Students should plan their program of study in the major with the help of a departmental advisor as soon as possible so that the correct sequence of courses is taken and a set of four electives is chosen. It is also suggested that students consult with an advisor before selecting courses to meet the General Education requirements. (See program overview for acceptable science electives.)

Several endowed scholarship funds offer annual awards to computer science majors who show scholarly accomplishment and demonstrate financial need. An Entrepreneurship Program and Developers Prize, funded by our alumni, encourage and support innovation and entrepreneurship among students.
