The Graduate School just approved CS 599 to be offered in Spring 2014.
Math 505 is a prerequisite course in the MS in CS program. However, it is dropped from Spring schedule by the Math Department. CS 599 Discrete Structures is intended to be used in place of Math 505 for students who need it in the Spring. This course can not be used as an elective course in Computer Science.
This is a good news for CS students, because we will be able to tune this course more towards the needs of computer science students, and incorporate new trends and thoughts into it.
The instructor for Spring 2014 is Dr. Chang. Dr. Chang graduated with a PhD in Mathematics, but has been a computer science professor over the past 40 years. She is in a uniquely fitting position to present an integrated introductory math course for computer science students.
CS 599 will be offered on Wednesday evenings, in HT 226.
