IMPORTANT FOOTNOTES:
  1. The credits for the dropped MATH requirements move to more-general requirements:
    1. one of MATH 2007 or 3101 has been changed to one of MATH 2007, 2107, 3101
    2. 0.5 credits COMP 2000-level or above has been changed to1.0 credits COMP or MATH 2000-level or above.
  2. This STAT course is being replaced by a choice: STAT 2507 or 2605.
  3. The two categories of electives: Approved Arts or Social Sciences or Science or Business, and Approved Arts or Social Sciences or Business have been combined into Approved Arts or Social Sciences or Science or Business. As a result, it is now possible to do all of the electives in Science (outside CS and Math/Stats) if desired.
  4. CCDP is replaced by a choice of any MATH or COMP course at the 2000 level or above.
