Minor in Computer Science

Up to two approved courses (total) from another department, as defined below, may be used toward the minor in Computer Science requirements:
1. ECE 101, ECE 175, or ISTA 130 may be used in lieu of CSC 110
2. MATH 243 or MATH 323 may be used in lieu of CSC 144
3. ECE 369A may be used in lieu of CSC 252
4. DATA/MATH 363 may be used in lieu of CSC 380
5. Courses from another department (including cross-listed courses: ECE/CSC 474A, LING/CSC/PSY 438, LING/CSC/ISTA 439, MATH/MATV/CSC 443, MATH/MATV/CSC/MATV 475A, MATH/MATV/CSC 475B, PHIL/CSC/MATH 401A, PHIL/CSC/MATH 401B, PHIL/CSC/PSY/PSYC 455, MATH/PHIL/CSC 402).

CSC 110 is the preferred course for the CS minor. Students who previously completed ECE 101 or ECE 175 or ISTA 130 before declaring the minor may use either course towards the CSC 110 requirement. Only one course from CSC 110, ECE 101, ECE 175 and ISTA 130 may be used towards the minor. Students who completed ECE 175 : contact a CS undergraduate academic advisor to discuss options available to make up the unit difference between ECE 175 (3 units) and CSC 110 (4 units).

Only one course from CSC 144, MATH 243 and MATH 323 may be used towards the minor. Only one course from CSC 252 and ECE 369A may be used towards the minor. Only one course from CSC 345 and CSC 355 may be used towards the minor. Only one course from CSC 380 and MATH/DATA 363 may be used towards the minor.

Please consult your major advisor(s) for restrictions on double use of courses for this minor (ie, math majors may not double use MATH 323).

All CS students must be aware of the policies unique to the Department of Computer Science. CS undergraduate policies may be viewed here: https://www.cs.arizona.edu/undergraduate/department-policies-undergraduates
