Requirements

The six-course CS minor has the following requirements:

• 2 CS background courses (those offered by the CAS CS department whose description says "background course for the CS concentration"). Currently, this means any two of CAS CS 111, 131, 112, 132, 210, 235, 237.
• 3 CS courses numbered CAS CS 300 or above.
• 1 more CAS CS course except CS 101. With prior approval, a course in another department may be substituted.

After you declare a CS minor (code 0701), be sure to sign up for our cs-ugrads mailing list, as well cs-jobs and cs-internships lists if you wish to receive job-related announcements.

Note that many CS courses have prerequisites and most are not offered every semester, so plan your schedule carefully. If you do not have a CS advisor listed (to find out, go to Student Link, click on "Academics" and then on "Academic Advising"), and wish to speak to one, contact Professor Leo Reyzin, Director of Undergraduate Studies. This form, which summarizes the minor requirements, may be helpful in your advising meeting.
