From: Dr. Deborah A. Farro-Lynd
Chair- Department of Mathematics, Computer Science, and Statistics
Subject: Proposed revisions to: Statistics Major
Statistics Minor
Computer Science Major- Standard Option
Computer Science Major- Applied Option
Mathematics Major
The Department of Mathematics, Computer Science, and Statistics requested the following
revisions to the Statistics Major during Spring 2013. The revisions were approved by the
College Curriculum Committee and Senate. They were not forwarded to SUNY/SED due to the
re-registration issues. The Department is ready to proceed with re-registration of the Statistics
Major. The only additional change is that MATH 205: Discrete Mathematical Structures should
be added to the related work because it became a prerequisite for 300-level mathematics courses.
The Department of Mathematics, Computer Science, and Statistics requested revisions to the
Statistics Minor during Spring 2013. The revisions were approved by the College Curriculum
Committee and Senate. The only additional change is the course STAT 261: Probability Models
and Statistical Inference has been formally approved to increase from a 3 s.h. course to a 4 s.h.
course effective Fall 2015. Thus, the required course credits total 10-11 sh and the total program
credits total 27-28 sh.
The Department of Mathematics, Computer Science, and Statistics requested the following
revisions to the Computer Science Major- Standard Option during Spring 2013. The revisions
were approved by the College Curriculum Committee and Senate. They were not forwarded to
SUNY/SED due to the re-registration issues. The Department is ready to proceed with
re-registration of the Computer Science Major- Standard Option. The only additional change is
with respect to the electives list which should now read: Choose any six 200- or 300-level CSCI
courses including at least one 300-level CSCI course except CSCI 200: Practical Computer
Course or CSCI 295: Teaching Assistantship in Computer Science. The total program credits
change from 64 sh to 66 sh because MATH 205: Discrete Mathematical Structures and
STAT 261: Probability Models & Statistical Inference changed from 3 sh to 4 sh courses.
The Department of Mathematics, Computer Science, and Statistics requested the following
revisions to the Computer Science Major- Applied Option during Spring 2013. The revisions
were approved by the College Curriculum Committee and Senate. They were not forwarded to
SUNY/SED due to the re-registration issues. The Department is ready to proceed with
re-registration of the Computer Science Major- Applied Option. The only additional change is
with respect to the electives which should now read as follows. A. Choose any four 200- or 300level CSCI courses including at least one 300-level CSCI course. Note: The course CSCI 295:
Teaching Assistantship in Computer Science may be taken only once for elective credit.
B. Complete a minor in an approved area including Computer Art, Geographic Information
Systems, Biology, Business, Audio Arts Production, Physics, Astronomy, or Mass
Communication. The total program credits change from 65 sh to 70-78 sh.
The Department of Mathematics, Computer Science, and Statistics requests the following
revision to the Mathematics Major. The current major requires 6 sh of electives from the
following list: MATH 245, 256, 277, 299, 301, 309, 321, 322, 323, 324, 325, 326, 327, 335, 336,
337, 361, 362, 369, 377, 378, 384, 385, 394, 398, 399, STAT 361, 362, 369. The revision should
read: Choose 6 sh of 200- or 300-level MATH courses (except MATH 295: Teaching
Assistantship in Mathematics) or STAT 361, 362, 369.
