Computer and Information Technology Supplemental Information

Interdisciplinary Selectives (15 credits)

The Interdisciplinary Selective requirement can be met in one of three ways:

• Any University recognized non-computing minor or certificate of at least 12 credit hours. AIS, CGT, CNIT, CS and ECE are considered computing minors and are not available as interdisciplinary selectives.

If some courses from the minor fulfill major or other departmental requirements, additional courses will be required to satisfy interdisciplinary selective credit hour requirement. The following non-computing courses are approved options to fulfill this need regardless of course level:

• • Honors (HONR) courses
  • Courses in the same area as their completed minor
  • Courses complementary to their completed minor
  • Courses that are part of a minor or a university wide certificate of 15 credits or more
  • Courses that are a pre-requisite to a required minor course
• Courses within no more than two non-computing subjects (course prefix) to meet the credit hour requirement for the major such that:
• • No more than three credit hours at the 10000-level
  • At least three credit hours in advanced courses at the 30000-level or higher
• A department-approved set of non-computing courses in (a) subject area(s) to which Information Technology can be applied. This option allows a student to create a set of complementary courses across subjects that collectively meet an over-arching objective.

To choose this option, submit a one to two-page document to the curriculum committee through your advisor that details your objective and list the courses proposed to meet the fifteen credit-hour requirement and how each will contribute to the over-arching objective.

Information Technology Selectives (15 credits)

At least nine credits must be CNIT courses.

• Any non-required 30000 level or higher CNIT course or
• EPICS (EPCS): participation in EPICS requires CIT faculty approval and responsibility for the IT component of the project or
• CGT courses 30000 level or higher

Elective

Double Majors within CIT

Students cannot double major between the CNIT major and any other CIT major (CSAD, CSEC, DATA, INET).
