The map

Intro tiers at the top, advanced work below; arrows point from a prerequisite to the course it unlocks. Courses from other departments appear where they gate CSCI work. Click any course to see what it requires and unlocks without leaving this page; hovering lights up its neighbors. The lists on this page carry the same courses in text form.

Showing the 6 CSCI and feeder courses that have prerequisite links. 3 more CSCI courses have no recorded prerequisites. They are listed under Tracks below, not drawn as loose dots here.
