Minor in Computer Science

Students who plan to major in another area but have a strong interest in computing may want to consider doing a minor in Computer and Information Science.

A student minoring in CIS may follow one of the following two tracks. Courses applied to the minor may not be applied toward the student's major.

Programming and Algorithms Track:

Required Courses

CSE 221, 222, 321, 360;
Math 366.

 

Elective Courses (choose two)

CSE 541, 560, 625, 655, 660, 670, 675.01 or 675.02, 680.

Information Systems Track:

CSE 201, 214, 314, 360, 670;
Math 366.

 

Elective Courses (choose one)

CSE 560, 616, 671.

Students pursuing a minor do not get permanent computer accounts on the departmental machines, nor do they get priority scheduling into the M sections of CSE courses.
