The goal of the post-baccalaureate program is to provide an opportunity for college graduates to return to school for one year of concentrated study in which they complete all of the requirements for a rigorous undergraduate major in Computer Science . The standard course sequence is as shown below: * Summer Courses o Cosi 11a: Introduction to Programming in Java and C o Cosi 21a: Data Structures and the Fundamentals of Computing * Autumn Courses o Cosi 29a: Discrete Structures o Cosi 31a: Computer Structure and Organization o Cosi elective o Cosi elective * Spring Courses o Cosi 21b: Structure and Interpretation of Computer Programs o Cosi 30a: Introduction to the Theory of Computation o Cosi elective o Cosi elective Students who complete the post-baccalauareate program are able to apply for the Combined Post-Baccalaureate/M.A. Program in which they stay an additional year taking six graduate level courses and graduate with an MA in Computer Science. Post-Baccalaureate students with a programming background may ask to be exempted from the introductory courses: Cosi 11a, 21a. They may also submit a petition to replace core courses (in which they have previous work experience or study) with electives. Students with no previous background are encouraged to take the introductory courses in Summer School and then complete the remaining core and elective courses during the following academic year.
