A maximum of 3 credits of CHEM 4990 Independent Study in Chemistry can be counted toward the minor. Computer Information Systems Minor The computer information systems minor is intended for students in any major who wish to acquire more knowledge in programming, database systems, Web programming, and networking. This minor can be combined with any major and minor except the computer information systems major. A minimum of 9 credits must be exclusive to the minor and cannot be counted toward any other majors/minors/certificate programs. Computer Information Systems Minor Requirements (17 credits) CSIS 2000 Introduction to Database Systems (3 credits) CSIS 2101 Fundamentals of Computer Programming (4 credits) CSIS 3020 Web Programming and Design (3 credits) CSIS 3101 Advanced Computer Programming (4 credits) CSIS 3500 Networks and Data Communication (3 credits) Exercise Science Minor The exercise science minor is designed to provide students with a foundation and theory base in the movement sciences for the physically active. Additionally, the program offers courses for the student who is interested in the physiological, biomechanical, and psychological aspects of human function in response to exercise and physical activity. The primary goal of this program is to supplement academic knowledge for students to study in the exercise science sub-disciplines (biomechanics, exercise physiology, and motor behavior) and promote entry into professional programs. The minor is available to PALS (day) students only. This minor can be combined with any major and minor except the exercise and sport science major. When combining this minor with the athletic training major, a minimum of 8 credits must be exclusive to the minor and cannot be counted toward the major. Exercise Science Minor Learning Outcomes A successful exercise science minor is expected to: 1. Demonstrate and explain a strong foundation and theory base in the movement sciences for the physically active; 2. Analyze the physiological, biomechanical, and psychological aspects for human function in response to exercise and physical activity; 3. Develop and present a physical fitness program.
