Credits in the major: 68
You officially begin the major by enrolling in CST 300: Major ProSeminar Lecture Major ProSeminar where you are assigned to a faculty advisor who will work with you to create or revise your Individual Learning Plan (ILP). That ILP maps out how you will achieve each of the Major Learning Outcomes (MLOs) designated below by successfully completing the listed courses or alternative assessment options. You conclude the major by completing your Capstone, a publicly presented project that displays your cumulative learning in the major.
The MLOs consist of four sections: Core, Emphasis, Breadth and Culmination. You first satisfy the Core MLOs to build a foundation in technology and design. You then choose one Emphasis of five courses to develop depth in a specialized area. You take at least one elective course not in your emphasis to fulfill the Breadth MLO. You finish by completing the Culmination MLOs, which bring together and polish all that you have learned.
