Minor: Information Technology
The study of information is an interdisciplinary venture. This minor is designed for students who do not wish to become computer scientists, but realize their chosen field requires the regular use of information processing and basic computing skills and is thus intended for any student who wishes to enhance their technical computer skills, as well as their ability to critique and evaluate information. A core of technical computer courses is complimented by a set of electives that draw from the strengths of other disciplines in the area of critical thinking, digital information and emerging technologies.
The minor is ideal for any student who wishes to utilize technology and information in their given profession or further studies.
