These courses satisfy the STS CORE Supplemental course requirement described in the 1st year advising sheet. You may take any two courses on this list at any time during your two years in the program; however, we recommend that you take them during your first year. You may petition the STS director for approval of a course not listed here, just email Dr. Mendelsohn its syllabus.
Please note that prior to enrolling in the sophomore Capstone course (CPSP 227), you must complete a CORE SB course; this prerequisite does not have to be drawn from this list.
The information here simply reorganizes and expands on the course abbreviations listed on the 1st year advising sheet for students entering in the Fall 2008 semester.
