II. The Curriculum System

1.   General Education Courses

General education curriculum consists of three parts, namely, public courses, general education core courses and general education practices. A total of 48 credits should be earned: 25 credits in Public courses including ideological and political courses, English and PE; 21 credits in general education core courses including 8 credits in humanities, 4 credits in social sciences, and 9 credits in natural sciences and engineering technology; 2 credits in general education practices.

2. Professional Education Courses

For discipline-based general electives, it is recommended to take Computer Organization and Architecture, Data Structure A, and Computability Theory.

For specialized electives, (A)-marked courses are required.

3.      Practical Education Courses

For restricted electives on specialized science and technology innovation, it is recommended to take Information Retrieval Technology and Practice, Large- scale Data Processing Architecture and Platform Experiment, Virtualization and Green Computing, Automatic Processing Technology for Programming Language, Embedded Systems Design for Mobile Platform.

Elective courses on professional design are strongly recommended.

4.   Individualized Education Courses

Individualized education courses are electives at students’ choice and 20 credits are to be finished during their study. All credits count in this curriculum but those for the above three modules as in the major’s training program (i.e. modules of general education, professional education and practical education). To illustrate, credits for Individualized Education Courses include credits of minor courses and elective courses, excess credits of restricted electives, credits of professional electives with no credit requirements provided by some other majors, credits of College Basic English (3) and (4), and credits from the recognized extracurricular competitions and practical innovation projects such as PRP.

 

III.       Academic System, Graduation Requirements and Degree

The flexible academic system is applied in Computer Science and Technology and lasts 4 to 6 years. Early graduation is allowed for students who have obtained 207 credits as required. Extended schooling within six years is also permissible. According to “Regulations Concerning Academic Degrees in the People’s Republic of China”, BE Degree will be granted to students who have completed the curricula and teaching practice as required in the major training program and obtained the required credits with qualified moral, intellectual and physical examination results.
