From the official systems qual syllabus:
Knowledge of basic representations of surfaces and solids, scan-conversion algorithms, geometric transformations, viewing projections, visible-surface determination, and shading models, as covered in CS 248. Understanding of basic issues in input and display hardware, graphics software, and user interface design. Some knowledge in depth of either curve, surface, and solid modeling and geometric algorithms at the level of CS 348A, or of sampling, filtering, and local and global illumination methods at the level of CS 348B.
Typical references for the material in 248, 348A, and 348B, are the online course notes, where available, and the following three books:
