Plus select one of the three tracks below: | |
|
1. Breadth-of-field Track (No Minor) The Breadth of Field Track allows the student to balance software
and hardware courses and, in addition, include the modeling aspects
of computation in their course of study. This track is recommended
for students who wish to maximize the opportunities for advanced
study following the BS degree. |

|
2. Software Emphasis Track (Computer Science Minor) Programmed instructions are the basis of machine intelligence.
Through the software emphasis track, the student acquires a thorough
background in machine instructions leading to intelligent
operations. The two courses that culminate this sequence (one in
artificial intelligence, the other in human cognition) provide
contrast between machine and human intelligence. |

3. Hardware Emphasis Track (Computer Engineering Minor)
Neural circuitry and neural system components are both similar and
different from electronic circuitry and computational system
components. These similarities and differences are fundamental to
the link between neurosciences and computational science. The
hardware emphasis track provides the neuroscience student the
opportunity to explore these similarities and differences. |

*Graduate Study By Seniors: Seniors who have at least a 3.00 grade point average in the last
half of their undergraduate coursework at Washington State
University may register for up to six semester hours of work in
the Graduate School in excess of the number of hours required to
complete the bachelor's degree. Graduate School approval is
required at the time of registration. Only grades of "B" or
higher may be applied toward an advanced degree. Seniors who
wish to enroll in 500-level courses for undergraduate credit
must obtain the approval of their major advisor and the Chair of
the department or program in which the course is offered.
