Requirements for a minor in computer science are listed below. Students should meet with a Computer Science Department advisor early in their program to discuss requirements and declare the minor. All courses counted toward the minor must be completed with a grade of C- or better. The overall GPA in Computer Science Minor courses must be at least 2.5. There may be no more than three repeats of Computer Science courses (whether counted for the minor or not). Credit hours from courses offered outside of the Computer Science Department and/or from CS 1400 taken as Challenge by Exam cannot be counted toward the Computer Science minor.
