This section provides general information on Northeastern's partner international schools that offer a significant number of courses in the relevant major. The courses listed in these guides are those that have been evaluated in Northeastern's Course Equivalency database to have Northeastern course equivalents. The guides listed below are intended to help students navigate the study abroad process as they provide suggested programs for individual majors. The list of courses within these guides is NOT an exhaustive list of the courses available at the host institution, nor is it guaranteed that these courses will be offered each semester at the host institution. Additionally, there are many other program options for each major outside of those listed in the guide; these can be explored through the Course Equivalency database or the Search Opportunities page.

Please note that each student intending on studying abroad should speak to their Academic Advisor to discuss course selections, work with their Global Experience Advisor to learn more about study abroad opportunities, and check the host institution website for the most up-to-date information about course offerings.

Northeastern Brand - Refer to Northeastern University's guidelines on logo use.

Compliance with all other Laws and Policies - Surveys must comply with all other applicable University policies and state and federal laws, including the federal laws for copyright and privacy.

Survey Data - Qualtrics users are responsible for downloading and securing all survey data in conformity with Northeastern's guidelines and standards for handling sensitive information. The information is outlined but not limited to the Appropriate Use Policy of Computer And Network Resources. Survey participants should be informed that their survey data will be stored on a third party server and that, while the third party has agreed to keep the data confidential, Northeastern University does not control the security of that server.

Protecting Privacy - All surveys must protect the privacy and confidentiality of student, employee and other institutional information, as required by FERPA (privacy of student information), appropriate state laws, and Northeastern policies. Although a closed group of participants may complete Qualtrics surveys without the individuals explicitly having to identify themselves, the Qualtrics software stores identifying information in its databases. Consequently, Qualtrics cannot be used with absolute guarantees of anonymity for your participants. For additional information on FERPA and related university practices and procedures, visit the Office of the University Registrar's Guidelines for Student Data Usage webpage. To learn more about Northeastern's commitment to protecting privacy, read the Online Privacy Statement.

Leaving Northeastern - When leaving Northeastern, the manager of employee or employee will need to contact Northeastern Qualtrics administrators to transfer any relevant Qualtrics content to another institutional account, after which Northeastern will close the Qualtrics account for the person no longer affiliated with the university and delete all surveys and results.

Northeastern University reserves the right to change, at any time, and at its sole discretion, this survey service and these Terms of Use.

3. Results Distribution - Respondents should be informed if the data or survey results will be published or distributed, including whether individual responses will appear in the published results.

4. Survey Contact Person - The survey questionnaire must include "contact information" (name, email address, telephone number) should the respondents have any questions about the content of the form or about the use and/or publication of survey results.

5. Survey Distribution - Due to the high volume of surveys administered at Northeastern, it is prohibited to distribute surveys via mass outlets such as blast emails and MyNEU portal.

How do I change my major/minor? Toggle

Changing your major to the College of Arts, Media and Design

We strongly recommend that you start the process by meeting with a faculty mentor in your new major to talk about your educational and professional interests and goals for the major to make sure it's the right choice for you.

Once you're ready to make the change, then it's time to schedule an appointment with your new Academic Advisor to make the change official and start the academic planning process.

If you are considering building your own Combined Major from the list of Combined Major Templates, the process is nearly the same, but you'll be meeting with faculty in departments as well as the academic advisors for each half you want to combine.

For change of major procedures in other colleges, start with the information on this Registrar's page.

What is the myPAWS/DARS Degree Audit? Toggle

The myPAWS (or DARS) Degree Audit is a tool to help determine progress in your major. You can find your audit when you log into myNortheastern and select the Self-Service tab.

What is the FACT System? Toggle

The Faculty Advisor Communication Tool (FACT) system is an important part of CAMD's retention and advising efforts. Instructors use the FACT system to provide notification of any difficulties to students as well as their assigned academic advisor. FACT reports can be submitted at any time in the semester for any student struggling in any course. When instructors submit reports, we ask that they consider submitting a FACT report for any student who may be struggling in his or her course(s).

How do advisors use submitted FACT reports? Toggle

Many FACT reports are routine requests for students to visit advisor office hours, TA hours, or tutoring. In those cases, advisors will reiterate that message with the student, as well as leave a note in the FACT system which instructors can view at any time through Blackboard. In cases where signs of difficulty are trending across multiple courses for a student, or where there is serious concern in a single course, advisors will immediately reach out to the student to meet and offer support, in addition to making a note in the FACT system. The advisor may also contact instructors directly if they need additional information.

How do I register for courses?/I don't know what courses to select. Toggle

Check out Undergraduate Resources & Policies[Link to 4.1.6] for information on:

Reading your DARS audit

Searching for classes

Registering for classes

Full or Restricted courses

View the Academic Calendar to find out when registration starts for each semester.

How do I change my Pattern of Attendance (POA)? Toggle

POA changes almost always involve a student participating in a co-op-either setting a student's record to go on a future co-op, or setting a student's record so they won't be going on any further co-ops. Please contact your co-op coordinator to initiate this change. You can also call 617.373.5583 for help determining the right advisor for your POA change.

How do I change my graduation year? Toggle

Please contact your academic advisor in 100 Meserve Hall to make changes to your graduation year. Visit Contact Us for a list of CAMD academic advisors. If you are a junior or senior year, you must complete the Graduation Clearance before changing your grad year. To set up an appointment with your academic advisor, call 617.373.5583 or log into myNortheastern > Self-Service > Appointment Calendar. You will be able to find your advisor within the Appointment Calendar.

What are the academic progression standards? Toggle

Academic Progression Standards

Northeastern students are expected to maintain satisfactory academic progression toward graduation each semester. However, when a student earns fewer than 12 Semester Hours (SH) of credit per semester and/or is below a 2.000 GPA in 3 consecutive academic semesters, the student is dismissed. You can find the complete Academic Probation policy in the Northeastern University Undergraduate Catalog under Academic Progression Standards.

Academic Probation

If a student earns fewer than 12 SH in one fall or spring semester and/or the student's GPA drops below a 2.000, the student will be placed on Academic Probation by the College of Arts, Media and Design.

When a student is placed on Academic Probation for the first time, the student is encouraged to come see his/her Academic Advisor or to meet with the Student Retention and Persistence Specialist as well as seek tutoring as necessary. All students on Academic Probation are required to complete an Academic Probation Contract with their Academic Advisor. The contract will outline the requirements the student must meet in order to return to good academic standing.

When a student is placed on Academic Probation for the second time, the student must meet with our the Student Retention and Persistence Specialist to complete an Academic Probation Contract and are required to seek tutoring.

Dismissal

Students who have remained on Academic Probation for 3 consecutive academic fall or spring semesters will be dismissed from the College and University. Additionally, the College may, at its discretion, immediately dismiss students who earn 4 or fewer credits in any fall or spring semester or have an overall GPA of 1.000 or less. When a student in the College of Arts, Media and Design is dismissed from the University, the following standard actions apply:

The student will be dropped from all registered courses for the semester immediately following dismissal.

The student may not petition to return to classes for the semester immediately following dismissal.

The student may file an appeal petition with the College to be allowed to return to classes in a future term.

Dismissal Appeal Petition Process Deadlines for appeal:

Fall 2018 Return: Monday, July 16th

There are two parts to the dismissal appeal:

Academic Dismissal Appeal Form is to be filled out by the student. Please be very thoughtful as you complete this, as it is your only avenue to explain your reasoning of why you should be allowed to return to Northeastern.

Letter(s) of support. Choose one of the two following options:

For students returning to the same major, we require a letter of support from the chair or a faculty mentor of your home department.
Faculty: Possible points to include in the faculty letter of support are the following:

Willingness to accept this student (back) into your program.

Do you feel that the student has the capability to succeed in his/her current/new program?

Did the student seek assistance or guidance throughout the last semester?

Would you describe the student as engaged and/or participatory in class and/or the program?

Other relevant information that you feel would be helpful in evaluating the student's petition to return to CAMD.

If the student is allowed to return, do you have any contingent recommendations?

For students switching into a new major at the time of reentry, two letters are required. First is from a past faculty member that can speak to your academic strengths as demonstrated in that class and the second must be from either the chair or a faculty mentor of your new major. Set up a meeting with a designated faculty mentor or with the department chair to discuss your plans for the new major before asking for a letter of support from him/her.
Faculty: Possible points to include in this letter of support are the following:

Do you feel that the student has the capability to succeed generally at Northeastern even though s/he did not find success in your program?

Did the student seek assistance or guidance throughout the last semester?

Would you describe the student as engaged and/or participatory in class and/or the program?

If the student is allowed to return, do you have any contingent recommendations?

Both the Academic Dismissal Appeal Form and the faculty letter(s) of support should be submitted to our Student Retention and Persistence Specialist by the deadline stated above. You will be contacted with the College's decision after the deadline stated above.

If you are readmitted to the College, you will be required to hold regular and mandatory meetings with our Student Retention and Persistence Specialist. Our Persistence Specialist is a designated resource for all students who are experiencing academic difficulty.

Scheduling an appointment

Advisors meet with students on both a drop-in and scheduled appointment basis. Drop-in appointments are designed to address quick questions and last no longer than 10 minutes. For all other inquiries, schedule an academic advising appointment on the myNortheastern Appointment Calendar.

General advising inquiries may also be sent to khoury-advising@northeastern.edu. Use your Husky email address and include your full name and Northeastern ID in the message.

Preparing for your appointment

To get the most out of your advising appointment:

Make a list of the issues you want to discuss.

Consider whether your question would be better directed to another office, such as Student Accounts, Financial Aid, or Housing. If you are unsure, we will direct you.

Review your degree audit and requirements on myNortheastern, and a sample schedule from your degree program, if applicable.

Degree audit

A degree audit (myPAWS) is an interactive review of your academic progress toward degree completion in your declared major, outlining specific course requirements for a specific entering year. Degree audits are the official university requirements for each academic program.

Log in to myNortheastern, go to the Self-Service page, and select "myDegreeAudit." You may run an audit for a major/ minor other than your declared major or minor by using the myPAWS "Explore Options" and " What-if Courses " features.

Change of major

Transferring to Khoury from another major at Northeastern

Khoury accepts students who demonstrate the skills and commitment necessary to be successful in our majors. We consider a student's academic record, related outside activities and interest in relevant career paths. We welcome students who meet eligibility requirements and are dedicated to completing our academically rigorous program.

Admission requirements:

Overall GPA of 2.7 or higher

Completion of CS 2500/2501 with a grade of C- or higher

Must be in good academic standing

For admission into CS/Business or IS/Business, you must have a GPA of 2.0 or higher in any business courses

If you have already completed CS 2510/2511 and/or CS 1800/1802, you will need a C- or higher to progress in the degree

Transferring majors with Khoury

If a student wishes to change their current Khoury major to a different Khoury major, students should complete the below Application for Change of Major and make an appointment with their current Khoury academic advisor.

Transitional Admissions

If you wish to transfer into Khoury, but do not meet the above criteria, you will remain in your current college as a transitional student. In addition to meeting with your home college advisor, we recommend meeting with a Khoury advisor to discuss academic plans, schedule classes, and create a transition plan as you work towards meeting the transfer criteria.

Application for Change of Major

Applications to Khoury are accepted throughout the year. Our advisors are glad to meet with you to discuss the program, major options, and eligibility requirement.

If you meet eligibility standards, please complete the Application for Change of Major (Khoury).

Patterns of attendance

Your co-op pattern of attendance is the term-by-term plan in which you will be taking classes on campus and going on co-op. It is important that you work closely with your advisor to select and follow appropriate patterns of attendance in line with your academic program. Please note:

Most co-op patterns have a four-year or five-year option.

Some degree programs have limited co-op pattern options.

Students must graduate during an academic course term (not while on co-op).

Back-to-back co-op employment is not permitted.

Students must meet eligibility requirements to participate in co-op.

Students may enroll in one course while on co-op, but must petition to take more than one.

View sample patterns of attendance
Pattern assignment

Patterns of attendance are assigned during your first year on campus, typically during the spring semester. Some academic programs within the college require specific patterns that reflect industry standards and course offerings and cannot be adjusted. Others have flexibility in the number of co-ops (typically two or three), the timeline to graduation (four years or five years), and the semester that students are on co-op (late summer and fall or spring and early summer).

Four-year vs. five-year pattern

The standard co-op pattern for Khoury is two co-ops which requires four summer sessions. Five-year patterns are also available for most of our programs, they typically offer three co-ops and require two summer terms. Some degree programs require specialized co-op patterns that may vary. Students who have transfer credit (Advanced Placement, A-Levels, International Baccalaureate, etc.) applicable to their degree program may be able to reduce the number of summer terms required and/or graduate early. Talk with your academic advisor about your options.

Pattern of Attendance change deadline

If you are planning to change your Pattern of Attendance for an upcoming semester or cycle, please note the new submission deadlines:

The last day to change to a spring pattern (co-op for Jan. - June) is the last day of the Summer 1 semester

The last day to change to a fall pattern (co-op for July - Dec.) is the Friday before the Thanksgiving holiday

If you have questions regarding your pattern of attendance or whether you should make a change, please contact your academic advisor. Students making pattern changes so they can graduate in a given semester can submit changes at any time.

Request for Pattern of Attendance change

After you have been assigned a Pattern of Attendance through your CS 1200 class or transfer evaluation, you may need to change your pattern. Students often request a pattern change for a variety of reasons. If you need to change your pattern, please complete the Pattern of Attendance Change application.

Please note that submission of the application does not mean your change will be approved. Your application will be reviewed by the Khoury Advising Team. If the change is approved, your pattern will be updated in the system and you will be notified of the change. If your requested pattern change is not approved, you and your advisor will be notified.

NUterm enables you to take classes during summer 1 (May and June) between your first and second years. In fact, it may be required if you choose a four-year co-op pattern. Talk with your advisor to determine if NUterm is right for you.

Academic integrity

Khoury College of Computer Sciences

The Khoury College of Computer Sciences takes the University's Academic Integrity Policy very seriously. Faculty will report all students found in violation of this policy to OSCCR. Khoury will convene an Academic Integrity Committee within the College to consider further penalties, such as disciplinary probation and/or academic suspension.

Northeastern University expects students to complete all examinations, tests, papers, creative projects, and assignments of any kind according to the highest ethical standards according to our Academic Integrity Policy. The following is a broad overview of what constitutes a violation of academic integrity:

Cheating - Using or attempting to use unauthorized materials, information, or study aids in any academic exercise. When completing any academic assignment, a student shall rely on his or her own mastery of the subject.

Fabrication - Falsification, misrepresentation, or invention of any information, data, or citation in an academic exercise.

Plagiarism- Using as one's own the words, ideas, data, code, or other original academic material of another without providing proper citation or attribution. Plagiarism can apply to any assignment, either final or drafted copies, and it can occur either accidentally or deliberately. Claiming that one has "forgotten" to document ideas or material taken from another source does not exempt one from plagiarizing.

Unauthorized collaboration- Instances when students submit individual academic works that are substantially similar to one another. While several students may have the same source material, any analysis, interpretation, or reporting of data required by an assignment must be each individual's independent work unless the instructor has explicitly granted permission for group work.

Participation in academically dishonest activities- Any action taken by a student with the intention of gaining an unfair advantage over other students.

Facilitating academic dishonesty - Intentionally or knowingly helping or contributing to the violation of any provision of this policy.

As members of the academic community, students must become familiar with their rights and responsibilities. In each course, they are responsible for knowing the requirements and restrictions regarding research and writing, examinations of whatever kind, collaborative work, the use of study aids, the appropriateness of assistance, and other issues. Students are responsible for learning the conventions of documentation and acknowledgment of sources in their fields.

Northeastern expects students to complete all examinations, tests, papers, creative projects, and assignments of any kind according to the highest ethical standards, as set forth either explicitly or implicitly in the Code of Student Conduct or by the direction of instructors. Please note:

Academic dishonesty is taken very seriously and can result in expulsion.

Cheating goes on a student's permanent record.

Final grades are at instructors' discretion.

Office of Student Conduct and Conflict Resolution & Cheating (OSCCR)

Northeastern University's OSCCR strives to promote and instill the values of civility and good citizenship within the Northeastern community. OSCCR addresses student conduct violations and conflicts through an educational process and provides engaging programming and training to help maintain a healthy living and learning environment. OSCCR also strives to provide a community free of intimidation, harassment, or unfair treatment. Violations of the university's Academic Integrity Policy are handled by OSCCR.

Khoury academic policies

First-year academic progression

To make adequate academic progress in the college, first year students are expected to earn:

A minimum of 24 semester hours of credit

A minimum overall and major GPA of 1.8

A grade of C or higher in ENGW1111 or 1102

A deficit in any of these criteria after two semesters of enrollment will lead to student dismissal from Khoury and potentially from Northeastern.

Additional requirements

Students are permitted two attempts to earn a minimum grade of C- in the following courses: CS1800, 2500, 2510.

If a C- is not earned by the second attempt, a student will be dismissed from Khoury and potentially from Northeastern.

If the following courses are required by the degree program, a minimum grade of C- is required: MATH1231, 1251, 1252, 1340, 1341, 1342.

Students are also required to earn a C- or higher in their advanced English writing course (i.e., ENGW 3302, 3315). This is the university-wide passing grade for this degree requirement.

Maintaining good standing

To remain in good academic standing and progress after the first year, students are required to fulfill:

A minimum of 12 SH in each full-term semester (Fall or Spring)

A minimum overall GPA of 2.0

A minimum GPA of 2.0 in all Khoury courses

A minimum GPA of 2.0 for business courses in the combined CS and Business and IS and Business majors (or the Business portion of the combined major will be dropped)

Academic probation and dismissal

Full-time students who fail to meet the criteria for good standing described above will be placed on academic probation effective for the following semester. The action will appear on the internal record, but not on the transcript.

Students who remain on probation after two full-term academic semesters will be dismissed from the university.

Honors in Khoury

Khoury invites interested and qualified Khoury students to pursue a discipline-specific honors designation by completing and presenting a project beyond curricular requirements. The Honors in the Discipline program is designed to provide students with strong academic performance the opportunity to gain valuable practical experience by completing a project related to their major and interests.

Minimum Eligibility Requirements

Students must have junior or senior status and be in good standing in a Khoury degree program. A GPA of at least 3.5 is required at the time of the application and proposal submission; at least a 3.5 cumulative GPA is also required at graduation to receive the honors distinction. Students must secure the participation of a faculty advisor, who agrees to support the student throughout the duration of the project.

Note: it is NOT required that students be part of the University Honors Program.

General Guidelines

Interested students should begin by deciding on a project they want to complete, securing a faculty advisor, and submitting the application and a formal proposal to their academic advisor, who will forward it to a faculty committee convened by the associate dean. If the proposal is approved, the student will begin work on the project under the mentorship of the faculty advisor.

At the conclusion of the project, the student will submit a final paper and present the project to the dean, the faculty advisor, and any other faculty, staff, or students who wish to attend. The faculty advisor, along with the associate dean and the faculty committee, will then discuss the work and the presentation to determine if it is satisfactory.

Upon successful completion, students will receive a designation on their transcripts indicating, "Honors in [Student's Major]."

Identifying a Faculty Advisor

It is the student's responsibility to identify and secure a faculty advisor, who will serve as a mentor for the duration of the project. Students should identify a faculty advisor based on how closely the faculty member's research interests and expertise align with the student's project interests. Upon securing a faculty advisor, the student and advisor will work together to finalize the project idea and submit a proposal along with the application; faculty advisor sign-off on the application is required before the proposal will be accepted.

Application and Proposal

The proposal and application are the first formal submissions of the Honors in the Discipline process. The application can be accessed here.

The proposal should be a narrative description of the intended project, and should include:

A detailed description of the project

Rationale (why does this work/research matter?)

Specific goals of the work/research

Complete timeline of the project

Preliminary literature review

The application and proposal should be submitted no later than the end of the first week of classes of the semester in which the project work is to begin.
Collaborative Projects
Students wishing to pursue collaborative projects should include additional information regarding their collaboration with their proposal, including:

A statement indicating the reason for collaboration

An explanation of how the workload will be divided amongst the participants

Evidence that the project will be much more substantive than an individual project would be

Project Options

The project is intended to offer a significant contribution to external stakeholders while also being a valuable learning experience for the student. Possible projects include:

An original research project

A significant software development project

A significant data project

A computing project with a significant social impact

The completed project must be accompanied by a full report or publishable paper describing the work in detail. The culmination of the project is the public presentation, which will always be scheduled on Reading Day.

While there are no specific duration requirements, most projects that would offer a satisfactorily-significant impact and be worthy of an honors distinction will last two semesters.

Graduation

Preparing for graduation is an exciting time and our academic advisors look forward to supporting you along the way. Official graduation clearance comes from two offices: the Khoury advising office and the university registrar's office.

To ensure your final year at Khoury and Northeastern concludes smoothly, you should:

Confirm the graduation year indicated on myNortheastern matches your intended graduation year.

Read and follow your advisor's instructions regarding graduation (you will begin to receive correspondence about graduation clearance in the spring or early summer of the year prior to your graduation year).

Review and approve your official Graduation Clearance Contract.

Apply to graduate on myNortheastern to notify the university of your graduation intentions.

Notify your academic advisor of any changes in registration or graduation plans.

Review important information about the commencement ceremony held each May.

New Combined Majors Request Form

If you would like to suggest a new combined major with the Khoury College of Computer Sciences, please fill out this form.

The college will take proposals under consideration. Given the many complications involved in considering new curriculum, submitting a request does not imply that the college will create this proposed combined major. Please do not make academic plans on the assumption that a combined major will be created.

The creation of a new major is a lengthy process due to the planning and levels of approval which must be attained. Your information will be kept on file, and you will be informed if, and when, such a major has been created.

The Khoury College of Computer Sciences offers the PlusOne, an opportunity to accelerate the time to completion for an MS in computer science degree from Northeastern University for most of our undergraduate majors. The PlusOne option allows undergraduate students to complete a maximum of 4 graduate level courses to apply toward both the undergraduate and graduate degree programs, shortening the time needed to complete the Master of Science in Computer Science from two years to one.

Admission

Interested students should meet with their advisor no later than the third semester to start the admission process, beginning with enrollment in a single graduate course. Undergraduate students must establish a minimum of 3.25 GPA to register for graduate level courses. Formal admission to the PlusOne program requires a minimum 3.25 GPA, both cumulative and within the major, and a minimum grade of B in at least one graduate level CS course. Students must be in an undergraduate major within Khoury to participate in the PlusOne program within the college.

Progression

Admission into the PlusOne program does not guarantee admission into the Master's program upon graduation at the baccalaureate level. Students admitted into the PlusOne program maintain undergraduate level standing and must continue to request admission into graduate courses each term. In order to continue in the PlusOne program, students must maintain a minimum 3.0 GPA and earn a minimum grade of B in all graduate level CS courses. Courses completed with a grade below a "B" may not be accepted by the graduate program.

Advising & Completion

Students must complete individualized plans of study with their assigned undergraduate academic advisor upon admission into the program.

During senior year, students will finalize the formal PlusOne form with the Associate Director of Graduate Student Services to matriculate into the Master's program upon undergraduate graduation. Students must take at least two masters classes as a masters student (post-bachelors graduation).
