This is a list of when courses within the CS major may be expected to be taught.
First there is a table sorted by course number; here you may see when a specific course is taught.
Please note that elective courses are subject to instructor availability.

Next there are answers to the questions:
"Which courses are taught in the Fall?"
"Which courses are taught in the Spring?" and
"Which courses are taught only on demand?"

This scheduling pattern became effective beginning in the Fall of 2005.

Questions: Which courses are taught only on demand?

Answer:
CS 155, CS 156, CS 159, CS 173, CS 216, CS 253, CS 256, and CS 262. These will be offered provided that there is sufficient demand and a qualified instructor is available. The process for having one of these courses taught is for interested students to sign a petition and submit it to the department early in the semester prior to when the course is desired. The petition should have as many signatures as possible on it; 25 signatures is a good number to get for an undergraduate course, or 15 signatures for a graduate course. However, under special circumstances petitions with fewer signatures may be also considered.
