Computing Science minor

This section specifies the Computing Science discipline requirements only. Students must combine these minor requirements with another science minor or major. Please refer to the Bachelor of Science section for information on additional requirements.

Declaration requirements

Students admitted to the Bachelor of Science may formally declare a science major or minor if they have a minimum CGPA of 2.00 and meet the declaration requirements for the subject discipline. BSc students are expected to declare a major or minor by the time they have completed 60 credits. Students in other degree programs may declare a science major or minor if they satisfy the declaration requirements and have the approval of their program.

Bachelor of Science students wishing to declare a Computing Science minor must complete any two COMP courses prior to their formal declaration.
