Notes:

For a Computer Science course to be counted toward the minor, a grade of “C” or higher is required.

CSC 424, CSC 435, and CSC 447 count towards the natural sciences requirement for students pursuing a B.S. degree in the College of Arts and Sciences.

Computer sciences minors who are interested in applying their technical knowledge in a business environment are encouraged to consider the Information Technology Consultant Academy Undergraduate Certificate. For more information, please consult the certificate section of the catalog.
