A thread is a specialization within several majors or minors at Georgia Tech, such as Computer Science, Electrical Engineering, and Computer Engineering.
College of Computing
Computer Science
A Computer Science major must take two of the eight available threads to fulfill degree requirements.[1]
The eight threads are:
- Devices: programming for embedded devices
- Information Internetworks: representing and transmitting information
- Intelligence: artificial intelligence, machine learning, computer vision
- Media: information visualization, video game development, new media
- Modeling and Simulation: high-performance computing, modeling complex systems and phenomena
- People: user experience research, human-computer interaction, product design
- Systems and Architecture: computer operating systems, compilers, languages
- Theory: theoretical computer science
For Computer Science, Information Internetworks is the most popular thread, followed by Intelligence, as of 2017.[2]
