CSE 100 and Three CSE Upper Division Courses
In addition to taking CSE 100, select three more CSE courses to meet the computer science minor requirements. The courses listed here require CSE 100 as a prerequisite: CSE 102, CSE 103, CSE 104, CSE 105, CSE 110, CSE 111, CSE 120, CSE 132A, CSE 134A, CSE 134B, CSE 135, CSE 140, CSE 145, CSE 150, CSE 151, CSE 153, CSE 155, CSE 160, CSE 166, and CSE 167.
Areas of Focus
Many CSE courses have additional prerequisites that you must complete in order to enroll into. Take one of the following areas of focus -- to study and learn a deeper meaning in one field.
Some students may further their studies by working on small research projects with CSE faculty. Small research projects are accomplished by seeking out faculty after completing course work that has really caught a student's attention. Research projects are completed by enrolling in a CSE 199 (Special Studies in CSE), a four-unit course.
