Theme Selection CINS and APCG majors can select any theme CINS and APCG majors can select any theme CSCI options should select Theme M because: CSCI options should select Theme M because: CSCI-301, Computer’s Impact on Society is required for the major and can be double counted as one of the Theme M and Theme J courses CSCI-301, Computer’s Impact on Society is required for the major and can be double counted as one of the Theme M and Theme J courses Accreditation requires that you take one more natural science course than the courses already in the program. Students normally take that additional course in their upper-division GE. Most themes do not have an acceptable natural science course but Theme M does.
