SET FORTH THE RATIONALE FOR THIS PROPOSAL: The changes are dictated by three rationales: 1) Some courses now have added pre-requisites, in light of the changes of the AIT program to a 4-year program. These changes implicitly added two more courses to the required 5: - cas 210, that is required as pre-requisite to casc casc 332, that is required as pre-requisite to casc 432 and casc 433 This pushes the current course requirements to 7 courses, or 21 credits. In order to resolve this problem, we have required all the courses that function as pre-requisites as part of the four courses that all students who wish to complete this minor will have to complete. 2) The students should have some flexibility in choosing to concentrate on the topics that are most appropriate to their needs. This is done by letting them choose two courses in areas of networking, system administration, security, or forensics from the list of possible elective courses (CaSC 312, casc 401, casc 432, casc 433, or casc 435). 3) The fact that students can take any two courses from that list will reduce the amount of potential scheduling conflicts with other courses within their major, giving them flexibility to participate in courses for both their major and minor.

5 US Catalog Description for the AIT Minor Attachment 1 SECURITY AND NETWORK ADMINISTRATION, MINOR Giovanni Vincenti, faculty contact Information Technology is the application of computing and communication technologies in industry, government l business and entertainment. In the 21st century, organizations rely heavily on those who can use IT application software competently and professionally. As the interconnection of global information networks expand, this interdisciplinary minor in computing, communication networks, computer system administration and security technologies provides students with theoretical and practical foundations in networking, computer system administration and security scenarios. Upon completing this minor, students will be prepared, with additional review, to pursue A+ and Network+ industry certifications. Actual certification would require successful completion of the certification examinations. COURSE CODE Computer Science (COSC). Description and prerequisites for individual courses are detailed in the Course Descriptions section of this catalog. MINOR REQUIREMENTS See the Requirements for Completion of a Minor. Applied Information Technology majors are not eligible for this minor. Minor Requirements (18 credits) COSC 210, Computer Hardware/Software Support COSC 310, Fundamentals of Computer Networks COSC 332, Fundamental of Computer Security COSC 430, Legal Issues in High Technology Crime Choose two from the following list: COSC 312, Administering and Supporting a Network Operating System COSC 401, The TCP/IP Protocol Suite COSC 432, Information Assurance COSC 433, Network Security COSC 435, Digital Forensics
