-All CS students are required to take three upper level CS electives. The specifics here depend on your Catalog Year (you can reference the details in your Academic Requirements page): 
  
-  * if you're on the 19-20 Catalog Year, you need three CS electives above 300 and //at least two must be above 345//. +====== Defining terms ======
-  * if you're on the 22-23 Catalog Year, you need three CS electives above 300 and //at least two must be above 332//.+
  
-So, if you want to count both CS 330 and CS 343 toward your CS Elective Requirements, you'll need to make sure your catalog year is 22-23.+A "CS Elective" is any CS course you "elect" to take - meaning, they aren't required courses for the CS major. 
  
 +You're required to take //one// of our five System Electives. If you elect to take another one, it would count as a CS elective.
