Minor in Computer Science

The minor in computer science is comprised of courses taken at LC and courses taken at partner institutions. Students must take at least six credit hours at the 3000-level or higher to earn the minor. 

Courses in the following categories marked with a (P) may be taken through partner institutions. 

  • Introduction to Computer Science (P)
  • MATH 2230 or an introductory programming course (P)
  • Second programming course (P)
  • MATH 3380 or similar discrete mathematics course (P)
  • One 3000-level elective. Choose one course, offered by a mathematics or computer science-related department, whose primary focus is from the following list: 
    • Data Science, including MATH 3092 or DATA 3000
    • Mathematical Modeling, including MATH 3185
    • Data Structures (P)
    • Algorithms (P)
    • Numerical Methods, including MATH 4410
    • Other course as appropriate for the discipline and as approved by the coordinator.
