Program in Applications of Computing

This interdisciplinary program is designed for students who want to combine the study of computing and computers beyond an introductory level with another academic concentration, but who are not majoring in computer science. We welcome students in all disciplines, including, of course, the traditional areas of computer application, such as engineering, the physical sciences, economics, and mathematics. But we also want to encourage students who are interested in what have been in the past less traditional application areas, such as biology, cognitive science, graphic arts, music, history, philosophy, sociology, literature, and so on.

The program is open to juniors and seniors who have successfully completed Computer Science 126 or an equivalent prerequisite to Computer Science 217 and 226. A student entering the program should have fulfilled the requirements for admission as a concentrator in a department other than computer science. Students interested in the program should see the program director. Further information is also available in the computer science undergraduate office, Room 410, Computer Science Building. Please see the program home page, www.cs.princeton.edu/academics/ugradpgm/pac.php, for up-to-date and expanded information.
