Minor in Computer Science Requirements

  1. For Computer Engineering Technology majors, the minor is built into the degree program. There are no additional courses to take for the minor.

  2. For Computer Engineering majors, the requirement is that you take two 3 credit 400 level CS elective courses beyond the courses required for your major.

  3. For all other majors the requirements are
    CS 361 -- Advanced Data Structures and Algorithms,
    CS 451 -- Software Engineering Survey or
               CS 350 -- Introduction to Software Engineering,
    and
    Two CS 400-level electives
    • Some 300 level CS courses may be substituted for the 400 level courses.
      For courses not listed below, one should check with a CS advisor before taking them.
        312, 330, 355, 418, 419, 450, 451, 452, 454, 455, 456, 460, 461, 472, 475, 476, 480, 483, 486, 487, 495, 497
    • Normally CS 300, 311, 333, 334, 367,368 and 381 may not be substituted for the 400 level elective requirements.
    • Some but not all CS 395 courses may be used as substitutions.
    • One may choose to take both CS 350 and CS 451, in which case the 451 will be used to satisfy one of the senior electives.
Note
  • Since CS 150 and CS 250 are required for CS 361 they become defacto requirements also.
  • Beginning Fall 2002, CS 252 is a co-requisite of CS 250 and prerequisite of CS 361.
