* MSU teaches the two semester introductory computer science sequence, COMS 111& 112, using the JAVA language. CS 1116 & 1136 are preferred if transfering to Mankato. These would also satisfy the JAVA requirement. Computer Science majors transferring from Inver Hills, who have not had a JAVA programming course, will need to take a JAVA short course their first term at MSU. Inver Hills' CS 1126 would satisfy this requirement.
