Minor in Computer Engineering
The purpose of the minor in Computer Engineering is to give students who are interested in the computer technology a good basic knowledge in software development, digital electronics, computer organization, and microprocessor applications. Additional knowledge in computer networks, multimedia systems, real-time systems, etc. may be acquired through electives. Students interested in the Computer Engineering minor must meet with the Program Head of Electrical and Computer Engineering and complete the Computer Engineering Minor Program Approval Form 
[PDF 26 KB]. Revision of the form requires the approval of the Program Head.
The minor in intended for students who have satisfied the following prerequisite requirements:
| Math 226 | Calculus I (4) |
| Math 227 | Calculus II (4) |
| Math 228 | Calculus III (4) |
| Math 245 | Elementary Differential Equations and Linear Algebra (3) |
| Phys220/222 | General Physics with Calculus I & Lab (4) |
| Phys230/232 | General Physics with Calculus II & Lab (4) |
| CSC 210 | Introduction to Computer Programming (3) |
| CSC 212 | Introduction to Software Development in Unix (2) |
The minor may be satisfied by a minimum of 21 units (not including prerequisite units) distributed as follows:
| 15 units |
| 6 units |
| Total | 21 units |
To earn a minor in Computer Engineering, a student must complete at least 12 of the required 21 core and elective units at SFSU. All courses in the minor must be taken with letter grades (CR/NC is not acceptable).
