Minor in CIS
A Minor or Associate of Science provides the student pursuing some other major with a credential and expertise in computing, an enhancement that is becoming increasingly important in almost every area of science, education, business, and the arts.
The Associate of Science degree demonstrates substantially more commitment to the field than just a minor. The associate degree is often seen as a step along the way toward an ultimate goal of attaining one of the B.S. in CIS degree options.
