A typical Computational Mathematics Major (who
in this example entered SPU in the fall of 2008) would follow the
schedule below for the required mathematics and physics credits.
Some notes on the introductory computer science courses required for the
major are also included below the table. In
addition, Computational
Mathematics majors should meet with a Computer Science advisor prior to the
junior year to plan how the upper division Computer Science will fit into
the junior and senior years.

Note that a number of courses are
offered on alternate years. It
is therefore quite important to start out by taking the calculus sequence
during the freshman year.
CSC 1230, 2430, and 2431 should be
taken either Autumn, Winter, Spring of the freshman year or Winter, Spring
of the freshman year and Autumn of the sophomore year.
CSC 2220
Scientific Programming should be taken in the Autumn quarter of
the sophomore year if at all possible.
