Double-counting note: Weinberg College prohibits double-counting a major course (those identified as program courses, below) toward some other major or minor, except where this is explicitly permitted in this catalog. Weinberg College allows double-counting a related course (see below) for a major toward some other major or minor. Weinberg College does allow double-counting a major course and related courses for a major toward a general bachelor's degree requirement (i.e. degree requirements other than majors or minors). Other programs or schools may have their own restrictions that supersede this, so check the relevant parts of this catalog for possible limits. Majors must take one course from each area. Minors must take one course from each of any three areas. Majors must take six technical electives. Any 300- or 400-level COMP_SCI course may be taken as a technical elective. In addition, the following courses may also be taken as technical electives:
