Generic BA Computer Science Degree Plan
This is a generic degree plan that applies to Thomas Edison State University for a Bachelor Arts in Computer Science as of approximately January of 2020. Please make sure that the suggestions are still valid before beginning to follow this plan.
General Education Requirements
As of 2021, students will be required to have a minimum of 30 RA credits to complete their degree. See the GE Requirements Roadmap for details and suggestions on courses that will fill this requirement.
Computer Science AOS
36 credits are in the AOS. 15 credits need to be UL.
Part A. Introduction to Programming
3 credits. Choose one.
| Course Expected | Recommended Course to Take | Recommended Provider |
|---|---|---|
| Intro Programming | Computer Science 109: Introduction to Programming | Study.com |
| Intro Programming | Introduction to Programming | OnlineDegree.com - US Residents only |
| Intro Programming | Programming for Everyone: Introduction to Programming - CSE 110 | ASU Earned Admissions (RA Credits) |
Part B. Data Structures
3 credits required
| Course Expected | Recommended Course to Take | Recommended Provider |
|---|---|---|
| Data Structures | Computer Science 201: Data Structures & Algorithms | Study.com |
Part C. Calculus
3 credits required. Pick one.
| Course Expected | Recommended Course to Take | Recommended Provider |
|---|---|---|
| Calculus | Math 104: Calculus | Study.com |
| Calculus | MA005: Calculus I | Saylor |
| Calculus | Calculus I Although not as cheap as other options, this one is highly recommended by students who have taken this course. |
StraighterLine |
| Calculus | Calculus | CLEP |
| Calculus | Calculus (MAT-302) | Coopersmith |
Part D. Discrete Math
3 credits required
| Course Expected | Recommended Course to Take | Recommended Provider |
|---|---|---|
| MAT-270 Discrete Math | MAT144 - Discrete Mathematics | Oakton Community College (RA Credits) |
| MAT-270 Discrete Math | MAT-311: Discrete Math | Strayer challenge exam (RA credits) |
Part E. Operating Systems
3 credits required
| Course Expected | Recommended Course to Take | Recommended Provider |
|---|---|---|
| COS-240 Operating Systems | ||
| COS-240 Operating Systems | CIS255: Operating Systems | Strayer challenge exam (RA credits) |
Part F. Computer Architecture
3 credits required
| Course Expected | Recommended Course to Take | Recommended Provider |
|---|---|---|
| COS-330 Computer Architecture |
Part G. AOS Electives
18 credits required. Only 12 of these need to be UL credits, because the Computer Architecture from Study.com is an UL course.
| Course Expected | Recommended Course to Take | Recommended Provider |
|---|---|---|
| UL CS | Computer Science 302: Systems Analysis & Design | Study.com |
| UL CS | Computer Science 303: Database Management | Study.com |
| UL CS | Business 303: Management Information Systems | Study.com |
| UL CS | Network Technology (CMP-354-TE) | TECEP (RA credits) |
| UL CS | CIS-351 Software Engineering If you are doing a 16-credit term, this is a relatively easy way for you to get UL credit. |
TESU |
| UL CS | Linear Algebra (MAT-305) | Coopersmith It has been reported that TESU no longer accepts Linear Algebra for their CS degrees. Transfer in this course at your own risk. |
Lower-Level options that do not overlap with previously-suggested courses. 6 credits required.
| Course Expected | Recommended Course to Take | Recommended Provider |
|---|---|---|
| CS | Introduction to Information Technology If you plan to do a 16-credit term, take the ePack instead of the Sophia course |
Sophia.org |
| CS | Computer Science 113: Programming in Python | Study.com |
| CS | Computer Science 310: Current Trends in Computer Science & IT | Study.com |
| CS | Computer Science 103: Computer Concepts & Applications | Study.com |
| CS | Computer Science 102: Fundamentals of Information Technology | Study.com |
| CS | Business 104: Information Systems and Computer Applications | Study.com |
| CS | Business 109: Intro to Computing | Study.com |
| CS | Introduction to Programming in C++ - CS101 | StraighterLine |
| CS | CS101: Introduction to Computer Science I | Saylor |
| CS | CS210: Systems Analysis & Development | Strayer challenge exam (RA credits) |
The Sophia IT course does not overlap with any of the other options. Some of the Intro to Computers/Computing courses overlap with one another. It is advised to take the Sophia course plus one other course from this list.
Liberal Arts Capstone
Must be taken at TESU. There is an alternative 6-credit capstone available that provides hands-on experience.
Electives
21 credits required.
See the GE Requirements Roadmap for suggestions.
