Computer Science Minor Requirements

The Computer Science Minor requires 20 units of computer science courses consisting of CSCI 40, CSCI 41, and 12 units

from CSCI 1, 60, or upper-division courses. At least 6 of the 20 units must be upper division. No CR/NC courses will be

accepted toward the Minor in Computer Science.

Suggested minor sequences (after completion of CSCI 40, 41):

Artificial Intelligence: CSCI 60, 112, 117, 164, 166

Computer Architecture: CSCI 112, 113, 176, 177

Computer Graphics: CSCI 112, 172, 173

Computer Languages: CSCI 60, 112, 115, 117, 134

Database Emphasis: CSCI 60, 115, 124, 126, 144

Scientific Computation: CSCI 60, 112, 154*, 172*

Secondary Teaching: CSCI 60, 112, 113, 115, 117

Software Engineering: CSCI 60, 112, 115, 150, 152

System Software: CSCI 112, 113, 144, (146 or 148)

Theory of Computation: CSCI 60, 119, 174, 186, 188

* CSCI 154 and 172 have a mathematics prerequisite. Note that these are only suggested combinations. While attention must

be given to prerequisites, many combinations are available to interested students.

FACULTY

The faculty comes from a variety of areas including computer systems and architecture, theoretical computer science,

programming languages, software engineering, computer graphics, distributed systems and parallel processing, neural

networks, image processing, computer vision, pattern recognition, wireless communication and mobile computing, robot

swarm communication, evolutionary computation, domain-specific languages, and real-time and embedded systems. They

have in common a desire to provide a program that will give the student a broad range of experience in computer science as

well as the depth of education that will be needed in the student's later career, whether professional or academic.

For faculty phone numbers and e-mail, see the campus directory.
