The next item is the Mathematics and Science General Education Requirement wording. At least 12 credits of Science, Mathematics, Engineering, or Computer Science, taken outside a student's major department, including at least one course in Mathematics or Computer Science, and at least one laboratory science. At least 12 of those credits must be outside the student's major department including at least one course in Mathematics or Computer Science, and at least one course in a laboratory science or engineering. Discussion followed surrounding the idea that most students will have three times as much of mathematics and sciences and there will be lots of flexibility. We should leave it open to Interdisciplinary courses.
Interdisciplinary courses can partition credit for mathematics, science, etc.
There was discussion as to whether the computer science course would require programming. The general consensus was not to have programming. In answer to Sheryl, the heart of computer science is an algorithmic design. That is not likely. Historically in engineering technical writing and computer science have been the only ones done this way.
