Or
8 (including 2 sequences)

CHALLENGES
Not all sequences are offered
Not all elective courses are offered
Building enough sequence and electives can be difficult if inappropriate decision is made on course registration
![Page 6: CSCI ELECTIVE ADVISING - California State University, Fresno€¦ · CSci 154 only requires 41 and 60 as pre-requisites In comparison, CSci 164 requires 117 to be completed first](https://reader034.vdocuments.site/reader034/viewer/2022050512/5f9d148dee02927387215b06/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
STRATEGIES
Try to build electives as early as possible
Take advantage of co-requisites
Start sequence courses as early as possible
Refer to the 4-year offering plan (new)
Request "accommodation" if needed

STRATEGIES
Try to build electives as early as possible
CSci 150 only requires 41 as pre-requisite
CSci 154 only requires 41 and 60 as pre-requisites
In comparison, CSci 164 requires 117 to be completed first
![Page 8: CSCI ELECTIVE ADVISING - California State University, Fresno€¦ · CSci 154 only requires 41 and 60 as pre-requisites In comparison, CSci 164 requires 117 to be completed first](https://reader034.vdocuments.site/reader034/viewer/2022050512/5f9d148dee02927387215b06/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
STRATEGIES
Take advantage of co-requisites
CSci 115 is a co-requisite of CSci 126
CSci 115 is a co-requisite of CSci 130
126-130 sequence was approved
CSci 144 is a co-requisite of CSci 156
![Page 9: CSCI ELECTIVE ADVISING - California State University, Fresno€¦ · CSci 154 only requires 41 and 60 as pre-requisites In comparison, CSci 164 requires 117 to be completed first](https://reader034.vdocuments.site/reader034/viewer/2022050512/5f9d148dee02927387215b06/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
STRATEGIES
Start sequence courses as early as possible
CSci 150 should be taken to secure a sequence since CSci 152 is regularly offered in Spring semesters
![Page 10: CSCI ELECTIVE ADVISING - California State University, Fresno€¦ · CSci 154 only requires 41 and 60 as pre-requisites In comparison, CSci 164 requires 117 to be completed first](https://reader034.vdocuments.site/reader034/viewer/2022050512/5f9d148dee02927387215b06/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
STRATEGIES
Refer to the 4-year offering plan
Our objective is to make sure students build up at least 2 sequences within any two year period.
But you need to enroll those courses!
We will ensure the enrollment of sequence courses by CSCI undergraduate students
We will send advising notes to students before registration

STRATEGIES
Request "accommodation" if needed
If you cannot get into a course you need, submit a permission request (form online AND outside department office)
If you are in the last semester but do not have the required electives to meet your graduation requirement, talk to major advisers as soon as possible.

STRATEGIES
Examples of Accommodation in the Past:
Help a student register an elective/sequence course
Help a student find a senior project to work on
Help a student take an independent study CSci 190 to meet elective requirement
Allow some courses to meet the 2nd course of sequence requirement, such as CSci 126 and 176
CSCI 126-130 was approved
![Page 13: CSCI ELECTIVE ADVISING - California State University, Fresno€¦ · CSci 154 only requires 41 and 60 as pre-requisites In comparison, CSci 164 requires 117 to be completed first](https://reader034.vdocuments.site/reader034/viewer/2022050512/5f9d148dee02927387215b06/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
YOUR ACTION IS NEEDED
Make your plan before the end of the previous semester to secure a safe course schedule
![Page 14: CSCI ELECTIVE ADVISING - California State University, Fresno€¦ · CSci 154 only requires 41 and 60 as pre-requisites In comparison, CSci 164 requires 117 to be completed first](https://reader034.vdocuments.site/reader034/viewer/2022050512/5f9d148dee02927387215b06/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
CONCLUSION
The department is in transition to a new curriculum based on ACM 2013 curriculum recommendation
Issues with sequence courses will be automatically resolved when the new curriculum is approved for implementation
4-year offering plan will ensure that students who graduate under the new curriculum will not get negatively affected
We are willing to try our best and help students graduate within 4 or 5 years.
