For BCompSc, BCompSc Options (i.e. Computer Applications, Computer Games, Software Systems, Web Services and Applications), Joint Majors in Data Science, Mathematics and Statistics, and Computation Arts:

An example of a first-year schedule for an ECP/MEP student could be:

First Semester:

• MATH 203
• Humanities or Social Science Course
• Elective*

Second Semester:

• MATH 204
• MATH 205
• Humanities or Social Science Course
• Elective*

*In addition to the prerequisite courses listed above, ECP/MEP students must take a minimum of:

ECP Students:

1. Information Systems: 15 elective credits chosen from outside the John Molson School of Business and the Gina Cody School of Engineering and Computer Science as part for their ECP Requirement.
2. Computation Arts: 15 elective credits chosen from outside the Gina Cody School of Engineering and Computer Science and the Department of Design and Computation Arts as part of their ECP Requirement
3. Mathematics and Statistics and Data Science: 15 elective credits chosen from outside the Gina Cody School of Engineering and Computer Science and the Department of Mathematics and Statistics as part for their ECP Requirement.
4. All other options:15 elective credits chosen from outside of the Gina Cody School of Engineering and Computer Science as part of their ECP Requirement

MEP Students:

1. All options: 3 elective credits chosen from outside of the Gina Cody School of Engineering and Computer Science as part of their MEP Requirement

Note:

1. MATH 203 must be taken before MATH 205. All other courses can be taken concurrently.
2. Since these courses are not scheduled by the Gina Cody School of Engineering and Computer Science, you may have course conflicts.
