Additional Considerations for the Minor— In consultation with the course instructor, CSC 226 may be waived, but if waived, a minimum of five course credits still is required for the Computer Science minor. An appropriate TAD, PHY, or other CSC course may be substituted for one of these additional courses by successful petition to the Computer Science Department Chair. Note that students who major in Computer and Information Science may not also complete the minor in Computer Science. Instead, such students are encouraged to consider the optional concentration in Computer Science.
