Sources of Information
Your CS advisor
Your academic advisor will help you map out your academic program. Your advisor will help you to set up your Computer Science course of study and help you to choose the correct courses to take during preregistration and registration. You should see your advisor whenever you have a question about which courses you should take and when and where you should take them.
Your Computer Science advisor is Professor Dennis Clayton. His office is room 225 in the Science Building. Stop by anytime, say hello, and pick up a CS curriculum and graduation checklist (sometimes called a balance sheet). You can also pick up an ACM membership application.
Your advisor’s web site is: www4.cookman.edu/faculty/clayton. Make sure you bookmark your this web site and visit it often. Important notices, job and internship notices, and links to other useful web sites are posted there. You will also find download links to many of the standard BCU forms. Check this site regularly. This is where you will find departmental notices that are important to CS and CIS majors.
BCU Catalog
The Bethune-Cookman University Catalog is your official source for university information. Get a copy from the Admissions Office if you don't already have one.
You can download the Catalog in pdf format from www.cookman.edu/subpages/Catalog.asp.
Registrar’s Office
The Registrar’s Office is on the southeast corner of MLK Blvd. and MMB Blvd. Sooner or later you will find yourself needing something from the Registrar’s Office. Find it and visit.
Financial Aid Office
If you have any kind of financial aid, including loans or scholarships, work study or work aid, you will need talk with the folks in the Financial Aid Office.
Check the Catalog for a short list of available financial aid packages.
Start in the Financial Aid Office if you are looking for University supported part-time work. There are two programs, both are very competitive:
Federal Work Study Program (FWS). This program provides jobs for a very limited number of students with financial need who must earn a part of their educational expenses. The Financial Aid Office arranges jobs on campus or off campus with public or private nonprofit agencies. You can apply for work study through the Financial Aid Office.
College Work Aid Program (CWA). University departments may employ student workers who do not qualify for the Federal Work Study Program. Check with the Financial Aid Office to see if you qualify for work aid.
Testing Center
The BCU Testing Office is in Faith Hall room #10.
Center for Information Technology
There CIT offices are in Faith Hall. Enter from the back of the building. Get a free BCU email address from CIT. This is where you go to complain when the network connection in your dorm room is not working.
BCU Web Page
Bookmark this web page: www.cookman.edu. It is your fastest access to University information. You will find links to all of the major administrative and academic departments, links to the Wildcat Web, calendars, faculty web sites, the campus phone book and lots more. Explore this site. It has lots of useful student information.
Wildcat Web
Bookmark this web page: wildcat.cookman.edu/cgi-bin/login.mbr/login. You can find current information about your academic and financial status. You can download an unofficial transcript. (For a small fee you can get an official transcript from the Registrar’s Office.) The Wildcat Web is where you will sign up for courses using online preregistration and registration. In order to access the Wildcat Web you will need your student ID number and your password.
Your Best Friend is Your Worst Advisor
Don't trust your best friend for academic information. Your best friend usually doesn't know what he or she is talking about. Trust the Catalog; trust your academic advisor; trust the Registrar; trust those who are paid to know what is going on. Do not trust gossip, rumor, or upper-classmen.
Computer Science Department
Department Goals
The goal of the department is to offer technical programs leading to a Bachelor of Science degree in Computer Science or in Computer Information Systems. Successful completion of either program will prepare you to enter a profession in information technology or to pursue a master’s or doctoral program in your field of specialization.
The complete list of requirements for a degree in Computer Science is in the BCU Catalog. Occasionally, the degree requirements are updated to reflect the changing technology in computer science. You can always get an updated set of requirements from your advisor. At least once a year, check for changes in your degree requirements.
Admission to the CS program is through a formal declaration of major after you have passed CS 230 Programming I and CS 231 Programming II.
Requirements for a CS Degree
You must pass at least 44 semester hours of computer science and computer information systems coursework with a grade of C or better.
CS Requirements Summary
The following link will take you to the CS Program summary on another page in this web site: CS Program. Use your back button to return.
Computer Science majors take MA 135, MA 136, and BI 141 to meet their general education requirements for mathematics and biology. the Department of Computer Science requires computer science and computer information systems majors to pass EN 250 Technical Writing.
Freshmen Warning
- Block scheduling should place you in math, English, and reading courses. See your advisor immediately if you think you are in the wrong course.
- Make sure you are taking the correct math course! Only math courses numbered 135 or higher count towards graduation. You must take MA 135, MA 136, MA 241, and MA 242. See your advisor immediately if you think you are in the wrong course.
- Take CS 135 in the fall or the spring. It isn't taught in the summer.
- See your advisor immediately if you are a transfer student. You may be able to avoid taking some courses.
Freshman Courses
| First semester | Second semester |
| EN 131 English I | EN 132 English II |
| MA 135 Pre-Calculus | MA 136 Trigonometry |
| GE 110 Freshman Seminar | GE 111 Professional Seminar |
| plus courses to make 16 hrs | plus courses to make 16 hrs |
During your first or second semester take CS 135. It doesn't make any difference which semester.
You can take any of the following courses unless you have prerequisite problems due to remediation.
- BI 141 Biology and Lab
- CS 135 Introduction to Computing Logic
- HI 130 Afro-American History
- MLF 131 French I, MLG 131 German I, or MLS 131 Spanish I
- PE 111 or 112, 211, or 212 level activity
- RP 130 Introduction to Bible or RP 120 Introduction to Religion
- Take one of the following general education electives: BA 130, CJ 131, HI 131, HI 132, HI 230, HI 231, HI 232, INT 131, PS 230, POL 130, SO 131, SS 130, SS 210, and SS 220.
Freshman Courses You Should NOT Take
Do not take: BI 131, CS 132, CS 133, MA 131, or MA 132.
The math and English courses you take depend on your scores on the entrance exam. However, CS majors rarely take MA 131 and should never take MA 132. If you are placed in MA 131, make sure you question the placement. It may be a mistake. MA 131 and MA 132 do not count towards the math requirements for a computer science major. You must take MA 135 and MA 136, or higher.
Do not take CS 132 or CS 133. They count only as a free electives. If you take biology, make sure you take BI 141 and lab, not BI 131. BI 131 does not fulfill the biology requirement for computer science majors.
Do not take both RP 120 and RP 130, only one of them will count towards your RP requirements.
Based on your scores on the entrance exams, you may be placed in pre-college (remedial) courses. These are usually numbered either 110 or 111. These courses do not count towards graduation. However, PE 110, PE 111 and some similarly numbered music courses are not remedial and do count.
Sophomores Courses
Make sure you take CS 230 Programming I, CS 231 Programming II, MA 241 Calculus I, and MA 242 Calculus II.
Junior Courses
Continue taking required courses in computer science, physics, and general education. Try to complete all your general education requirements. You may have problems registering for senior level courses if you still have lower division, general education courses to complete.
Try to find an internship for the summer.
Join the ACM. Student membership is not expensive.
Pass the CLAST! If you do not pass the CLAST or get a waiver, you will not be allowed to register for CS 499 Senior Seminar. This can be a big problem.
Senior Courses
File your degree application early in the fall semester. Pick up the form from the Registrar’s Office. Fill out and take it to your advisor. Your advisor will review your transcripts and finish filling out the application form by listing the courses you must complete in order to graduate. You need to pick up the completed form and return it to the Registrar. Your advisor will not turn it in for you.
Register for CS 499 Senior Seminar (assuming you have passed the CLAST).
Prepare for the Senior Comprehensive Examination.
Work hard and make sure you finish your senior project during the semester you take CS 499. The only students who really mess up are the ones who do not complete their senior projects. They usually end up retaking CS 499 and often do not graduate on schedule.
You must complete your project, finish your senior paper, give your senior presentation, and pass the senior comprehensive exam in order to pass CS 499.
Senior Project
- Your project must be useful to someone.
- You must have a mentor.
- Your project must be approved in writing.
- You must complete your project in one semester.
- You must present the results in a senior thesis.
- You must give an oral presentation of your results. The presentation is open to faculty and students.
Senior Comprehensive Exam
- You can only take the senior exam if you are enrolled in CS 499.
- The exam questions are usually taken from the final exams given in CS and CIS courses.
- This is a pass/fail exam.
- You cannot pass CS 499 unless you pass this exam.
Credit by Examination (CLEP)
The CS Department does not offer credit by examination courses.
Independent Study
The CS Department strongly discourages independent study.
Typical CS Course Sequence
The CS Study Plan lists a typical sequence of courses leading a bachelor’s degree in computer science (use your back button to return to this page). The table also shows you when these courses are taught. Be careful when planning your schedule. Very few upper level CS or CIS courses are taught more often than once a year.
Graduation Checklist / Balance Sheet
The CS graduation checklist, which is often called a “balance sheet”, is used by you and by your advisor to check off the courses that you pass. This is used to chart your progress towards graduation with a Bachelor of Science Degree in Computer Science. It lists all the course requirements and credit hours and minimal passing grades. This checklist is also used to list transfer credits or alternative courses used to meet the requirements. Course titles shown are abbreviated and may not match the exact course titles. There are a total of 125 credit hours listed. You need at least 124 hours to graduate.
Get a current checklist from your academic advisor.
Electives and Common Course Substitutions
CS or CIS elective: Any 300 or 400 level CS or CIS course
CS, CIS, MA or CH elective: Any 300 or 400 level CS, CIS, or MA course; CIS Internship; or CH 141 or higher.
English: EN 131 and EN 132, or EN 141 and EN 142

Differences Between CIS and CS and MIS
The table at the bottom of this page compares the CS and the CIS curricula. The courses in gray are the same for both majors. Study this table carefully if you plan on changing your major from CS to CIS, or vice versa.
The Department of Business Administration offers a degree program leading to a Bachelor of Science with concentration in Management Information System (MIS). MIS majors take the core business administration courses and the following CS/CIS courses: CS 135, CS 330, CIS 331, CIS 332, and CIS 431. Note that it takes more hours to get a CIS Minor (18 hours) than it does to get an MIS concentration (15 hours).
Also note that the curriculum we call “Computer Information Systems” is often called “Management Information Systems” at other colleges and universities. There is no universally agreed upon CIS/MIS curriculum or name for such a program.
Computer Labs
CS majors have free, unlimited use of three computer labs in the Science Building: the DOD lab in S102, the CS lab in S130, and the Mickens lab in S116. You also have free use of the computers in the Library. There are lots of other computer labs on campus. Most of these labs are reserved for students in particular academic programs. You may or may not be able to use them. The only way to find out is to ask each lab manager for an account. If you get one, then good for you. If you get an account, make sure you obey the rules. Remember that food and drink are not allowed in any of the campus labs.
Careers in CS
Give serious consideration to pursuing graduate work if your GPA is in the B+ or higher range. A graduate degree significantly widens your range of professional opportunities, future advancement, and salary base. The additional time required to earn a graduate degree in computer science, computer information systems, or management information systems will quickly pay off.
You may decide to look for a job after graduation. These days, even the smallest businesses use computers to manage operations and information. Your computer information systems preparation will be useful almost anywhere. Large corporations maintain large information technology (IT) departments. You should be able to find an appropriate professional position in any IT department. If you want to get a quick sense of the job market, pick up the Sunday edition of any newspaper from a major metropolitan area and look through the job notices. You will find out very quickly what is currently in demand.
To succeed in this type of work, you need to enjoy it. You do not need to like all of it, but you do need to find areas of specialization that you are good at and that you enjoy doing. Areas of specialization that you are prepared to do for a living on a long term basis. Change your major if you do not enjoy the work in your computer oriented courses. Change your major if you cannot get the hang of it—meaning that your grades are C’s and D’s, not A’s and B’s.
There are many sites on the Internet that discuss career planning. These sites discuss job profiles; including expected pay ranges, job requirements, educational preparation, duties and expectations, psychological profiles, and on and on. You can start with the following site:
The Occupational Information Network (O*NET). Developed for the US Department of Labor by the National O*NET Consortium. This is a good place to explore professions. You can find out job requirements, pay scales, personality fits, and so on. For instance, do you want to know what a Systems Analyst does and whether or not it looks like something you might want to do? URL's: online.onetcenter.org and onet.rti.org
Map Your Future. Find out how to choose a career and how to reach your career goal. Pick up tips on job hunting, resume writing, and job interviewing techniques. URL: www.mapping-your-future.org/planning
Occupational Outlook Handbook. The Occupational Outlook Handbook describes what workers do on the job, working conditions, the training and education needed, earnings, and expected job prospects in a wide range of occupations. URL: www.bls.gov/oco
MonsterTrak Job Search. Find jobs and internships, post your resume, etc. URL: www.monstertrak.monster.com
Peterson’s. Search on financial aid, colleges, career services, graduate programs, resume assistance, etc. URL: www.petersons.com
Internships
The Department of Computer Science strongly supports student internships. An internship is how you find out what it is like to work in the real world. You will usually do an internship during your sophomore or junior summer semester for which you will receive 6 credit hours applied to the CS/CIS/MA/CH required elective. Additional internships after the first one will receive credit as free electives. The number of credit hours for an internship is negotiated between your advisor and your internship supervisor. After the internship is approved by your advisor, an internship course, either CS 390 or CS 490, is added to next semester’s schedule. You will then register for the course. Yes, you have to register and pay for the course, just like any other course. Your advisor will usually expect you to email weekly reports on your internship. When your internship is over, your advisor and your internship supervisor will agree on a final grade for your internship course.
Professional Organizations
Association for Computing Machinery (ACM) www.acm.org. The ACM has lots of student oriented programs and student membership is not very expensive. You should join. Even if you do not join the national ACM, you should join the BCU Student Chapter of the ACM. Get connected.
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE) www.ieee.org/portal/index.jsp. This is the other major professional organization of computing professionals. They also have lots of student oriented programs. We do not have a local student chapter.
National Technical Association (NTA) www.ntaonline.org. This is an organization of Black technical professionals.
General Academic Information
Student Classification
| Classification | Credit Hours |
|---|---|
| Freshman | 0 - 27 |
| Sophomore | 28 - 57 |
| Junior | 58 - 91 |
| Senior | 92+ |
How to Change Your Major
You can change your major anytime. Get a change of major form from the Registrar’s Office. Fill out the top part, ask your current advisor and your new advisor to sign the form and then return it to the Registrar’s Office.
Block Scheduling — Freshman only
Freshman students are block registered for their first semester at BCU. Freshman students are not allowed to drop any course during their first semester of enrollment. The only way to get block scheduling problems fixed is through the School of General Studies.
Continuous Enrollment
Students must be continuously enrolled in English, mathematics, reading, and freshman seminar until these course are passed with a C or better. For CS majors, this means you must be continuously enrolled in one of EN 112, EN 131, EN 132, and in one of MA 112, MA 131, MA 135, MA 136, and in RE 112 or RE 260, and in GE 110 or GE 111. See your advisor if this seems confusing. The only way to get around this is if the classes are full and you cannot get an override.
Overrides
An override is a form you need to get into a class that is closed or that you cannot register for (e.g., you may not have completed the prerequisites for a class). You can get an override form from most of the school offices. The instructor for the class you are trying to get into must sign the override form before you try to get any other signatures. After you get the instructor’s signature you will then need the Head of the Department’s signature. Your advisor cannot give you an override for any course.
Recommendation Letters
Most of your instructors will write recommendation/reference letters if you have done well in their courses—this means B+ or A. Instructors do not like to write letters for poor students. Instructors will not lie for you.
You absolutely must ask permission before you list someone as a reference. Make sure the person you ask is willing to give you a good recommendation. If not, ask someone else. You should trust your reference enough so that you can check off the confidentiality statement. If not, ask someone else!
Provide your reference with a description of the position, scholarship or internship that you are applying for. They need to know what to write about.
You should give your reference at least two weeks notice. Do not expect an overnight recommendation letter.
References are usually either online or mailed. If the recommendation letter is to be mailed, then you should provide your reference with an addressed, stamped envelope. Do not put a return address on the envelope. The return address is your reference, not you.
Transfer Credits
Discuss with your advisor any plans you have to take classes off campus. Your advisor will want to look at the course catalog from the other college or university in order to make sure the courses you want to take match with courses at BCU. Pick up a Transfer of Credit form from the Registrar’s Office. Your advisor will complete the course substitution part of the form. Then you need to get several signatures (mostly a formality). This is the only way to guarantee that the courses you take will be used to meet your graduation requirements!
You cannot take courses at a junior college that will substitute for upper level courses (300 or 400 level courses). Do not count on taking upper level courses during the summer. Most upper level computer science courses are not taught in the summer, anywhere. Do not take programming courses in the wrong language.
Grading Scale
The computer science department generally follows the University’s grading scale:
A = 90 ‑ 100, B = 80 ‑ 89, C = 70 ‑ 79, D = 60 ‑ 69, F = 0 ‑ 59.
There is one peculiarity to this scale. If you do not turn in an assignment, you will get a zero (0), not an F. If you think this is not a big deal, consider how many A’s you need in order to average a single zero to a passing grade. For instance, suppose turn in four out of five assignments and get a 95 on each of the four. Your average is:
76 = (0 + 95 + 95 + 95 + 95) / 5
This means that four solid A’s and a zero average to a middle C. More realistically, A-students do not usually miss assignments. So let’s assume you are a C-student. How many C’s (say, 75’s) do you need in order to average one zero grade to a passing average? Give up? It takes 14. Most courses do not have anywhere near 15 assignments. This means that if you miss one assignment it may not be possible for you to achieve a passing grade on the homework component of your grade.
Dropping a Course
You can drop any course unless you are a freshman covered by block scheduling, or you are trying to drop one of the courses covered by continuous enrollment. You can only drop during the two thirds of the semester. If you get a poor midterm grade you can drop the course. The last day to drop a course is about a month before the last day of class. Look it up and pay attention to this deadline. You can get a drop/add form from the Registrar. Take it to your advisor for a signature and return it to the Registrar.
Your instructor can drop you from a course for nonattendance on the midterm grade sheet. The only reason for dropping a student is for nonattendance. However, your instructor is not required to drop you if you do not attend class. After midterm grades are turned in, your instructor cannot drop you.
Incompletes
An incomplete grade usually means that you did not complete a significant amount of the coursework during the semester and that you have six weeks into the next semester to complete the work and remove the incomplete. An incomplete that is not removed by the sixth week will automatically convert to an F. You should meet with your instructor during the first week of class to negotiate the process for removing the incomplete. If you wait too long, you are liable to be told that it is too late. Your instructor has no obligation to baby-sit someone who is too irresponsible to finish work on time.
CLAST
Students must take and pass four subsections of the College Level Academic Skills Test (CLAST) or qualify for the CLAST Exemption prior to graduation. The four sections are math, reading, essay, and English language skills. The CLAST is administered only three times a year.
Students who meet the CLAST Exemption requirements must complete the CLAST Exemption Application form and return it to the BCU Testing Office in Faith Hall room #10.
There is also a CLAST waiver process for waiving one subtest. Go to the Testing Center in Faith Hall room #10 to see if you meet the requirements.
If you take the CLAST and do not pass one or more sub-tests, you will be enrolled (no choice) in GE 280 Communication/Computation Seminar for a prep course on the CLAST sub-test(s) you failed.
Academic Load
You are a full-time student if you are taking 12 or more credit hours. A full-time student normally carries 12 to 17 hours per semester. Students on academic probation are limited to 14 hours per semester. If you take more than 17 hours you will be charged extra for the overload. You will need at least a 3.0 GPA during the previous semester and approval from the Vice President for Academic Affairs to take more than 19 hours.
Be careful about taking fewer than 12 hours. You will probably lose your financial aid if you become a part-time student.
Dress code
Bethune-Cookman University has a University-wide dress code. Hats, caps, and do-rags are not to be worn inside and certainly not inside the classroom. You are expected to dress appropriately for a college or university instructional setting. Some instructors enforce the dress policy more rigidly than others. If your instructor considers your dress inappropriate, you may be asked to leave the class. If you are asked to leave, you should apologize, leave, change your clothes, and then return. Do not make a big issue out it. You will lose. Remember who gives you a grade at the end of the semester.
The following types of clothing and other items are not be allowed in classrooms, at University sponsored activities, in any University buildings including the cafeteria, or on the University campus grounds:
Clothing or accessories that contain obscene or profane expressions or condone or sanction violence; jewelry in the form or shape of drugs or drug paraphernalia; clothing, jewelry or other accessories with pictures of drugs or drug paraphernalia, or with expressions that condone or sanction the use of drugs; clothing which is sexually explicit or suggestive; clothing which expresses any form of ethnic degradation; and clothing, jewelry, and so forth, which tends to disrupt the educational process [BCU Catalog].
Persons who continually dress in a manner inconsistent with the University dress policy may be subjected to disciplinary measures as expressed in the BCU Student Handbook.
Cell Phones and Beepers
A cell phone or beeper that rings during class is very disruptive. Using a cell phone during class is a sign of disrespect for your instructor and fellow students. Turn cell phones and beepers off before class. Leave them home if you are incapable of turning them off. You will be asked to leave class if you continue to disrupt the class.
Disruptive Student Policy
A disruptive student will be asked to leave the classroom. An instructor will not engage in a showdown with a disruptive student. The instructor will leave the classroom, call security, and the student will be forcibly removed from the classroom, dropped from the class, placed on probation, and possibly expelled. If you are asked to leave a classroom, then apologize and leave. You cannot win in a confrontation with an instructor. If you think you can, then you do not belong in college—you are not smart enough.
Emergency Dismissal Policy
For violation of one offense, a student may be sent home. For violation of two more offenses, a student will be sent home:
- Excessive class absences. Six absences are considered excessive. Students should also note that a letter will be sent to parents of those students who have six or more absences from a class.
- Receiving failures or “F” grades in three courses, at mid semester.
- Disruptive classroom or campus behavior.
- Excessive absences from mandatory tutorial classes. Four absences are considered excessive.
