*The Science option in CSES requires either CSES 5080 or CSES 5500 but not both as a major course. Thus, a student in CSES in this minor could count one of the courses towards the minor.
Many of these courses are also available as distance courses. Those courses would also be considered in this minor - their course numbers are not included for brevity and document clarity.
