Minors

Computing education benefits and augments any field or educational path, even if computer science is not your major.

The College of Computing offers nine different computing minors for students in other disciplines who want to add some serious computational chops to their degrees and resumes. These programs provide a solid foundation for integrating computing principles and advancements within a vast array of career options.

Explore the minors offered by the College of Computing:
