A. To graduate with a Bachelor Degree in Computer Science and Information Engineering, all students must fulfill the General Education Requirements, complete 4 curriculum programs (Fundamental Program of Electrical Engineering and Computer, Core Program of Computer Science (I), Core Program of Computer Science (II), and one Professional Elective Program) and study a minimum of 132 credits. At least half of the 132 credits must be taught in English . The elective programs can be any curriculum module offered by the CSIE or other departments.

B. Students must take 6 compulsory credits in English and fulfill the English Proficiency Requirements set by the University, such as: LTTC-GEPT (Intermediate or above), TOEFL iBT (above 61), TOEFL ITP (above 500), TOEIC (above 600) or equivalent criteria listed on the Language Center website, as the NDHU Graduation Requirement. Students who pass the exams have to confirm their scores with the NDHU Language Center.

C. Students who fail the English Proficiency Requirements have to study 2 additional English courses (about 4~6 credits) from General Education courses, the English department, or any department offers the English-Taught courses. The courses must be approved by the Language Center. Those additional credits cannot be counted into the 9 credits in the Language field, but can be counted toward the total graduation credits.

D. Credits earned in courses of the same name offered by other departments or institutes may be counted toward degree requirements with the approval of the Departmental Education Committee.

E. The maximum credit load per semester is 24 credits with the exception of Physical Education and Military Training. All other exceptions must receive prior approval by the Departmental Education Committee.

F. All Students must successfully complete Service Learning (I) and (II) before graduation.

G. All Students must successfully complete and pass Introduction to Computer Programming (I) and (II), Lab of Programming (I) and (II), Data Structure, Lab of Data Structure, Algorithm Design and Analysis, and Lab of Algorithm classes before graduation.

H. All students must pass the Primary Programming Proficiency Exam in order to graduate.

I. For any students come from 5-year Middle School(Junior High)/High School education system, must take an additional 12 credits (as total 144 credits) to graduate. These 12 credits can be from any departments.

J. In addition to this requirement, all scholarship awardees must follow the scholarship regulations and requirements to complete the degree.

Important Notes: 1. Up to 6 credits are transferable into this program. For CSIE students: only Multimedia Systems and Network Programming Design classes are allowed to transfer into this program. For students of other departments: any courses offered by the CSIE elective programs, Introduction to Computer Programming (I), and/or Data Structure classes are allowed to transfer into this program. Please note: Courses of the same names but intended for non-major students are not allowed to transfer. 2. Only 1 course from the same course group can be counted as the required credits of the program, although all credits are counted for graduation. Students must decide where the course credits will be counted. If graduate-level courses are counted for undergraduate programs or for graduation, they cannot be counted again for the master’s programs. 3. For undergraduate students: when studying a graduate-level course with the same name, even though it is offered in different graduate programs (e.g. master’s, executive-master’s, doctoral), is deemed as the same-name course of this program.
