Java is required. It’s used in 2-4 courses for the major, depending on who’s teaching in any given quarter.

You can’t overlap CS and CS:GD. The majors are too similar so they dissalow double-majors. The Game Design degree will prepare you for software development nearly as well as the regular CS degree does, if not equally so. Of course you can also take more of the CS-specific classes to fulfill the CS:GD electives if you’d like, and get a balance of the two majors that way.

CS does have more math than CS:GD.
