Informatics

The undergraduate certificate allows a student majoring in another subject to get appropriate training in informatics and obtain certification as someone who knows how to apply informatics tools to that subject area.

  1. Minimum grade of 2.0 (C) in all courses taken for the certificate.
  2. Students are required to complete 27 credit hours from the following list:
    • INFO I101 Introduction to Informatics (4 cr.)
    • INFO I202 Social Informatics (3 cr.)
    • INFO I210 Information Infrastructure I (4 cr.)
