Minor in Computer Applications (15 cr.)
The Minor in Computer Applications provides current IU South Bend students with the knowledge and understanding of various information technologies. The minor provides the necessary technical expertise to students who are considering positions that make extensive use of computer technology and its applications to solve problems. Potential positions that may benefit from this minor may be found in many organizations, including business, health care, science and engineering, government, and not-for-profit agencies. In addition, existing students at IU South Bend, may find this minor complementary to their major.Students can take courses related to computer hardware and software components and learn how they operate, learn common office automation and productivity application software, and introductory courses in operating systems, problem solving using programming, event driven programming and graphical user interfaces, web programming, computer networks and the client/server computing model, and multimedia arts and technology.
Students should contact the department office (info@cs.iusb.edu or (574) 520-5521) before their first semester to schedule a meeting with a computer science advisor to develop a plan for their academic course of study.
