Currently Enrolled Major Changers
Students should complete a "Change or Declaration of Major" form and schedule an appointment to meet with the ISAT coordinator for students in ISAT 121 to get their Change of Major form signed and find out what classes to take.
Progressing in the Major
All students take the same sequence of classes for the first two foundation years and then choose courses from three of the six concentrations in their junior year. Seniors choose a course sequence and senior project to fulfill requirements for one or more concentrations. Students must earn a grade of "C-" or better in GISAT 151, GISAT 251 and ISAT 152 for the course to be used as a prerequisite for other ISAT foundation classes.
