The following lists the courses which satisfy the Humanities and Arts requirements for the B.S. degree in Computer Science. Most of these courses are offered by the College of Humanities & Social Sciences and the College of Fine Arts. Some courses that are offered by H&SS may not be used in satisfaction of the Humanities and Arts requirements; these are noted in the Deletions section. Also, some courses offered by other colleges may be used to satisfy the Humanities and Arts requirements. These are noted in the Additions section.

C. Electives (27 [or 36] units)
Students admitted in 2006 (27 units)
Complete 3 non-technical courses of at least 9 units each from any of the departments in H&SS, or CFA. Note the courses in the following section which are explicitly excluded from serving as a Humanities and Arts elective as well as the section of additional courses from non H&SS, or CFA departments which are allowed to be used in satisfaction of these electives.
Students admitted in 2006 are required to take 27 units of Humanities/Arts Electives instead of the 36 required of prior classes because 9 of their Elective units have been replaced by the requirement to take 15-221  Technical Communication for Computer Scientists.
Students admitted in 2005 or earlier (36 units)
Complete 4 non-technical courses of at least 9 units each from any of the departments in H&SS, or CFA. Note the courses in the following section which are explicitly excluded from serving as a Humanities and Arts elective as well as the section of additional courses from non H&SS, or CFA departments which are allowed to be used in satisfaction of these electives.

Deletions

The intent of the Humanities and Arts requirements is to provide breadth in background and exposure to non-technical areas. For this reason, certain technical courses from H&SS are excluded. These courses are listed below, though this list is not presumed to be exhaustive - new courses will undoubtedly be offered which are not currently listed.
The following H&SS departments offer courses that are considered too technical or quantitative to be used to fulfill any Humanities and Arts requirement. Particular disallowed courses are listed by department:

• 36-xxx Statistics
• 67-xxx H&SS Interdisciplinary
• 73-xxx Economics
• 80-xxx Philosophy
• 85-xxx Psychology
• 88-xxx Social & Decision Sciences

Additions

Certain courses offered in academic units other than H&SS and CFA are considered non-technical and may be taken to fulfill Humanities and Arts electives. The following courses offered by the EPP and BA departments may be used to satisfy the Humanities and Arts elective requirement. In addition, some courses offered by the Heinz School may also be used; see the Assistant Dean for a determination. Again, this list is not presumed to be exhaustive; we'll try to update it as we learn about new courses.

• 19-xxx Engineering and Public Policy
• 70-xxx Business Administration
