Minor

  • A dual program from the Carter School and College of Engineering and Computing about using engineering principles to support conditions for peace.

  • Sustainable systems engineering is a technical, transdisciplinary field focusing on how to design, integrate, and manage complex systems over their life cycles, with the goal of addressing climate change, energy, environmental, and economic sustainability.

  • The minor in food systems is designed to provide students from a range of disciplines with the knowledge and skills to understand how factors of the food system affects the health of a community (e.g., nutrition, food security, inequity, agriculture, food safety).

  • The minor in Software Engineering teaches students to design and build high-quality software, a valuable asset for engineers, mathematicians, and scientists interested in working in a variety of fields that increasingly demand strong software writing skills.

  • A minor in Statistics gives students a background in the theory and application of statistical methodology. It is intended to complement undergraduate degree programs in the College of Engineering and Computing and the College of Science.

  • This minor gives students the fundamentals of systems engineering. Participants learn how to deal with the system life cycle and use scientific methods for analyzing the operations of a system or organization. The courses help students in technical fields prepare for the information technology work now common in public and private industry.
