Purpose and Relevance
The purpose of establishing a minor in Information Technology is that specific program courses align with multiple majors across campus. Allied majors include:
- Construction Management
- Civil Engineering
- Landscape Architecture
- Architectural Engineering
- Biological Engineering
All these majors would benefit from the added breadth offered by this field.
