Bachelor of Science Degree in Computer Science General CS Concentration A Bachelor of Science in Computer Science with a Minor is a requirement for students who plan to have a broad but fundamental education that will allow them, when they graduate, to work in cooperation with professionals trained in areas other than computer science. Students who major in Computer Science and prefer to follow this track must have a declared minor in another academic discipline as first-time seekers of an undergraduate degree. The curriculum of this track is essential to provide the students with in-depth computer science knowledge but broadens it with additional knowledge from another field of their choice. This improves students’ competitiveness in the job market, especially for jobs requiring interactions and communication with others from different educational backgrounds.
