I think this list is missing some important parts of computer science. Here are the books that our university uses for first-year students combined with books that I found to be useful: Introduction to Programming (using Eiffel) [1] Mathematics for Computer Science (or: Discrete Mathematics) [2] Introduction to Datastructures and Algorithms [3] Introduction to Digital Design [4] Parallel Programming (using Java) [5] Optional but highly recommended, you'll probably find it completely out of scope: Real Analysis I [6] Real Analysis II [7] Introduction to Linear Algebra [8] Introduction to Physics [9] [1]: http://www.amazon.com/Touch-Class-Learning-Program-Contracts/dp/3540921443/ref=sr_1_3?ie=UTF8&qid=1396688827&sr=8-3&keywords=touch+of+class http://www.amazon.com/Touch-Class-Learning-Program-Contracts...
