Where ACS-4902 counts

Counts toward 2 more as one option among several, not as a course you must take:

ACS 4-YEAR BSc IN APPLIED COMPUTER SCIENCE
ACS BSc (HONOURS) IN

Read from the departments' own calendar pages, where 71 of 141 programs are only partly machine-readable, so treat these as a minimum rather than the full list. Confirm with an academic advisor.

Description
