COMPUTER SCIENCE:
In computer science course you
have to take a total of 14 courses in which 2 course are of pre requisite. It
means there will be an exam on C/C++ and Micro processor on the day of
departmental orientation which will be mostly on the normal orientation day
itself. If you clear these exams then there is no need of taking these courses,
means you will be taking only 12 courses. Each course will be costing you
around 2000 dollars. These courses will be some online and some face to face
but you has to take a minimum of two course face to face so as to maintain your
visa status ( F1).
COMPUTATIONAL SCIENCE:

you will be having a total of 13 courses in which on 1 course is prerequisite.
It means there will be an exam on C/C++ on the day of departmental orientation
which will be mostly on the normal orientation day itself. If you clear this
exam then there is no need of taking this course, means you will be taking on

These course will be some online and some face to face but you must take a
