The minor in computer information systems is primarily structured to provide students in various disciplines on campus with the opportunity to study business-oriented information systems.

Admission to the CIS minor is based on a student’s performance in one course from each of the following seven competency areas:

  • One introductory information-systems course (COB 204  or equivalent as determined by the department head)
  • One introductory computer programming course (CIS 221 , ISAT 252 , CS 139 , CS 149  , CS 159  , IA 241  or equivalent as determined by the department head)
  • One calculus course (MATH 205 , MATH 231 , MATH 235 , ISAT 151  or equivalent as determined by the department head)
