  MS Computer Science Placement Exam

  Department of Computer Science

  9:00 AM Technological Institute

  EVENT DETAILS

  The CS placement exam will be given in-person on-campus 9am, Monday, September 13.

  ALL incoming students must take the CS placement exam. This pencil-and-paper exam gauges your ability to translate computational ideas into data structures and algorithms in the programming language of your choice. It presumes familiarity with trees and graphs, but not specific algorithms. Polished runnable code is not the point.

  Students who do not pass the exam will need to register for CS 211 and CS 214 in the fall, and will not be allowed to register for CS courses that have 211 or 214 as a prerequisite
