This minor provides the foundation for students to study the architecture of computer hardware and learn to control the hardware systems using software applications and programming languages. The CpET minor is open to all majors on campus at the bachelor’s degree level; however, this minor may be of particular interest to information technology and other engineering majors.
- The minor must be completed with an overall GPA of 2.5 in all courses taken in the Minor.
- Students are expected to obtain the necessary background (prerequisites or equivalents) to complete the required courses for CpET minor program. The department may grant waivers to the required prerequisites for the upper-level courses based on prior related coursework or experience.
- Students planning to pursue a minor in CpET should apply as early as possible to facilitate course planning.
Student Learning Outcomes:
The minor in the computer engineering technology program produces graduates who:
- Apply knowledge of mathematics and science to solve computer engineering problems.
- Use fundamental techniques, skills, and tools necessary to support computer engineering practice.
