Purposeful Pathways

Purposeful Pathways#

During the semester, you must attend two events that are designated as Purposeful Pathways events for Computer Science.

A list of such events will be provided to you, and you may ask for approval of additional events not on the list.

You are required to write a 1-2 page reflection on each event.

Each reflection must include:

  • Key insights from the event

  • What you learned about yourself

  • How you will apply what you learned


If you declared your major after August 1, 2023, then, as a graduation requirement for Computer Science or Information Technology, you are required to attend at least two events from each of the three categories:

  1. Career Exploration

  2. Professional Preparation

  3. Networking & Employer Engagement

AND

Required to attend and reflect upon two activities for each of the following courses:

  • All 300-level electives (CSC-332 and CSC-348 this semester)

  • CSC-475 or CSC-502

  • CSC-122

Implementation of this requirement will be through standardized, graded requirements in individual courses.

This will allow IT majors will ultimately participate in a minimum of six activities, while CS majors will ultimately participate in 10, during their time at Furman.
