If I was you I would take


EECS 470: Computer Architecture
EECS 477: Introduction to Algorithms
EECS 482: Introduction to Operating Systems
EECS 484: Database Management Systems
EECS 489: Computer Networks


Why does your school requires so little CS classes? I have to take 20-25 classes in my school. Also the database system class is very important in the real world. Make sure you take it and learn all the material deeply. If you work on a big software project, the first and most important step is designing and creating the database in my opinion. Computer Architecture is very interesting but you won’t use it much unless you go to embedded dev.
