These students also are encouraged to take MATH 112 Calculus II and one or more advanced statistics courses as free electives, such as MATH 41 Statistical Methods II or MATH 44 Regression Analysis both of which require MATH Probability and Statistics as a prerequisite. For Business Specialization For New Media Specialization Career Track Electives. Students are strongly encouraged (but not required) to take -4 courses from one of the following Career Tracks, which focus on a particular specialty within the field of Information Systems. Note: Qualified students should consider the BA/MS or BA/PhD program, which allows undergraduates to start on a graduate degree as part of their undergraduate requirements. See the Office of Graduate Studies for more information. Consult your Academic Advisor for further details. Business and User Experience Specialization Electives: You must complete an entire set of either 5 approved business electives or 5 approved user experience electives. Independent Study (optionally leading to the Undergraduate Thesis Option): We encourage you to consider an independent study (IS 488) as part of your electives as juniors and seniors. You could then continue with an Undergraduate Thesis (IS 489), which optionally can substitute for IS 491 or IT 491. The thesis option is explained further on the Informatics Department web site. Please consult your advisor as early in your studies as possible to plan appropriately for all of these opportunities.
