For those already working in computer-intensive areas such as engineering, computer science, or statistics, knowledge of the social, organizational, and historical changes created by information infrastructures provides a good balance that is attractive to future employers. For those in the humanities or social sciences, acquisition of technical skills will provide you with tools that are increasingly in demand by graduate programs and employers, and necessary in our daily lives. The ITS minor program is open to undergraduates from all colleges and majors. It is designed to complement the backgrounds of those majoring in any field, whether liberal arts and sciences, engineering, applied life sciences, or commerce. Majors in Media Studies may elect Information Technology Studies as their General Advanced Study Concentration.
Admission is by application.
