Computer Science Minor

The minor in computer science introduces the theories and techniques of computer science and develops programming skills that are applicable to the student’s major. It is a strong complement to a major in any of the sciences and in other related fields such as multimedia, economics, digital humanities, data science, and more. Students from all majors have found their career opportunities enhanced through the CS minor.

Before enrolling in upper-division courses, students planning a minor in computer science must file an application form with the department. Each student should consult with a CS faculty advisor to plan the minor program.
