Gies +DS
Students interested in Accountancy +DS, Business +DS, or Finance +DS
The Degree Audit Report (DARS) provides the official requirements for all majors and minors. Select the correct catalog year, which is the year you started at UIUC.
Students wishing to declare any of the Gies +DS majors must complete the following criteria prior to being allowed to declare the major:
-
CS 107 (also known as STAT 107): Data Science Discovery
-
MATH 234 (or MATH 220 or MATH 221): Business Calculus (or Calculus 1)
-
Illinois gpa of 3.33 or higher
-
Catalog year of Fall 2021 or later
-
Degree should be able to be completed within the 9 semester limit set by the college
-
NOTE: From the Business Core - BADM 210 and 211 are not a part of this curriculum & CS 107 does meet the CS 105 BUS CORE requirement. But, CS 105 will not meet the CS 107 requirement for +DS.
Once students interested in the +DS majors in Gies have completed the criteria above, they may use the Major Declaration Form to declare the major.
*Note: The GPA Requirement has changed since the recording of this video. The GPA Requirement is now 3.33 at the time of entry.
