- Minor in Applied Physics
A minor in applied physics requires satisfactory completion of PHYS 201-202-303, 351 and at least 12 additional credits in physics or engineering courses at 300 level or higher. Persons who are majoring in biology, computer engineering, computer science, and mathematics are especially suited for such a minor program.
- Major in Computer Science
Support Courses in Computer Science:
1) ENGR 213;
2) MATH 125.
Major Courses in Computer Science:
1) CPSC 260, 270, 330, 410, 420;
2) Three major electives from CPEN 499; CPEN 414; CPSC 425, 426, 440, 450, 460, 470, 471, 480, 495, 502 (with advisor's permission); MATH 380, 480; PHYS 421, 441, with courses numbered 495 and above used no more than twice.
- Minor in Computer Science
The minor in computer science requires a minimum of 23 credits in computer science, including: CPSC 125, 150/150L-250/250L, 270, and nine additional credits in computer science at the upper (300-400) level. The following courses are suggested for a minor concentration in specific application areas: (1) Business application: CPSC 335, 350, 440; (2) Natural science applications: CPEN 214, CPEN 315/315L or CPSC 330, 420; (3) Mathematics application: CPSC 350, 420, 470. Computer Engineering majors desiring a minor in computer science must select from options 1 or 3.
