MINOR REQUIREMENTS

SOFTWARE ENGINEERING MINOR REQUIREMENTS

The Software Engineering Minor is designed for non-computer majors who wish to gain a practical grounding in Software Engineering without pursuing a detailed theoretical background. It comprises a selection of courses that are more practical in nature than theoretical. As such, the Software Engineering minor serves as a good base for non-computer specialists in post-AUCA life.

The Software Engineering Minor requires 42 credit hours: five compulsory courses, plus two other computer courses, to be chosen from a recommended list.

Required Courses for admits 2012-2016	Required Courses for admits 2017-
• Programming I	-Structural programming	6 credits
• Programming II	-Object Oriented programming	6 credits
• Algorithms and Data Structures	-Algorithms and Data Structures	6 credits
• Computer Architecture	-Computer Architecture	6 credits
• Algorithm Analysis	-Algorithm Analysis	6 credits

Elective courses: Introduction to Web Programming, Mobile Application Development, Database Pronciples/Design, Computer Networks, System Administration, etc.

Software Engineering minors must have permission of their department heads and the Software Engineering Department chair. Students must have a GPA of 2.5 or higher, and must have a “C-” or above in all courses that will count towards the minor. Sixty percent of the work towards the minor must be upper level computer courses.
