  1. Computer Science at UCSB Benji DunsonCS Dept. Staff Advisorpolicies, requirements Phill ConradCS Dept. Faculty AdvisorCS as a discipline,the curriculum content Fall 2010 fap-10 If you don’t know the answer... If you run out of time...Refer the student to:

  2. Frequently asked quesitons • What courses should I be taking next quarter? • What the difference between: • CS vs. CE vs. EE • BS vs. BA. vs CCS • What kinds of jobs am I preparing for? • Will I be sitting in a cubicle by myself all day coding? • Can I double major with x? Minor in y?

  3. The job outlook?

  4. What some fastest-growing jobs pay(from CNN.com/CareerBuilder.com) From Bureau of Labor Statistics' list of the 30 fastest-growing jobs through 2014 The 10 from the list with the highest salaries: • Computer systems software engineer -- $81,140 • Computer applications software engineer -- $76,310 • Biomedical engineer -- $70,520 • Physician assistant -- $69,250 • Environmental engineer -- $67,620 • Computer systems analyst -- $67,520 • Database administrator -- $61,950 • Physical therapist -- $61,560 • Network systems and data communication analyst -- $61,250 • Hydrologist -- $60,880 *Median annual salaries, according to November 2004 BLS data.

  7. What you need to get in—and to continue... To get into the pre-major At least 4 pre-major courses (see list below) Two must be CS 3.0 average in all pre-major courses taken To get into the full-major All pre-major courses must be taken 2.75 in all pre-major courses taken There are no exceptions to these numbers 2.749 will not get you in. What courses count: BS in CS: Math 3A,3B,3C,5A,5B PSTAT120A, CS 16,24,32,40,48,56,64 BA in CS: Math 3A,3B,3C,5A,5B PSTAT120A, CS 16,24,32,40 CS5, CS8 do not count for either degree (Disclaimer: This slide is an informal summary—NOT the official document.
