I want to share with you guys the course plan that I have gone with, to not only give you an idea about what a typical CS university curriculum is like but also share some of the courses I found interesting as well as a few projects I did. However, note that my pathway might differ from many other university students as I got transferred credits from high school where I did IB, so I didn’t have to take some introductory courses, like Introduction to Computer Science or Calculus I and II. It’s also the reason why I am able to graduate a year earlier.
