Academics / Specializations / Digital Libraries / Prerequisites to the Course of Study  
   
   

Students interested in entering the Digital Libraries Specialization should have successfully completed undergraduate courses in algebra or trigonometry, introductory logic, statistical analysis, and introductory programming. Programming courses should cover C, C++, or Java. These courses must have been taken and successfully completed from an accredited institution of higher learning prior to matriculation. 

Students who not yet fulfilled these requirements may do so at the University of Pittsburgh; for example, a student who must satisfy the introductory programming may take INFSCI 00012, Introduction to Programming, as offered through the Undergraduate Program in Information Science at the University of Pittsburgh, prior to initiating the Master's level course of study. Alternatively, such students may take a comparable course focusing on the C programming language, at another institution prior to enrolling at the University of Pittsburgh.

Please note that these requirements must be fulfilled before a student begins the course of  study for the Digital Libraries specialization.
