Minor programs
Minor Program in Computational Science and Engineering
Department of Computer Engineering is one of the coordinators of a multidisciplinary minor program in Computational Science and Engineering. This minor program is also open to CENG majors. For more information about the program please see: http://cse.metu.edu.tr/ .
Minor Program in Information Systems
Information Systems minor program aims at particularly fulfilling the educational requirements of an `information-based society`, which calls for a know-how in informatics in almost all areas of expertise. The program will consist of subjects in databases, software engineering, information systems and some other basic subjects in computer engineering and is open to all students whose major area is outside computer engineering, At least one course in programming is recommended for application.
Compulsory Courses:
- CENG 240 Programming with Python for Engineers
- CENG 301 Algorithms and Data Structures
Or
CENG 310 Algorithms and Data Structures with Python - CENG 350 Software Engineering
- CENG 351 Data Management and File Structures
Elective Courses:
3 courses selected from the courses offered by the Department of Computer Engineering.
Total minimum credit: 21
Notes:
- Quotas for courses may be limited by the department offering the courses.
- The overlap between the content of the course taken as elective and the other courses taken in the minor and courses taken in the major program should be less than 20%.
- Based on the METU directives for minor programs, students in a minor program are required to take a minimum of 4 courses, with no less than a total of 12 credits. These courses must not be the same as or equivalent to the ones taken in the student’s major program.
- Based on the METU directives for minor programs, students in a minor program must meet the prerequisites of the courses in that program.
- Students can also register to graduate level courses offered by the Department of Computer Engineering as electives with the approval of the minor program advisor and the consent of the instructor.
