The embedded systems minor integrates computer science and engineering, focusing on programming microprocessors and designing hardware systems. These skills are essential in robotics, where embedded systems control sensors, actuators, and decision-making algorithms. Students also explore applications in the Internet of Things (IoT), including smart devices, wearables, automotive systems, and medical technologies. With hands-on experience in circuit integration and low-level programming, the minor prepares students for careers in robotics, embedded AI, and advanced automation.

This 9-credit certificate will provide the student with essential computer programming skills to be applied in a variety of career fields.

Viterbo’s Computer Science minor consists of 15 credits of core coursework in Computer Science. Transfer course and waivers could modify these results.

Anesthesiologist assistants are highly educated allied health professionals who work under the direction of an anesthesiologist to help implement the anesthetic plan as prescribed by the anesthesiologist. Anesthesiologist assistants are trained through master’s degree professional programs in the delivery and maintenance of quality anesthesia care as well as advanced patient monitoring techniques. Anesthesiologist assistants can be thought of as similar to physician assistants, except that they work exclusively with anesthesiologists and practicing independently or in a primary care setting is NOT included in the Anesthesiologist assistants' scope of practice. Anesthesiologist assistants usually practice in a hospital setting that uses an Anesthesia Care Team approach and are always supervised by anesthesiologists. This track requires selection of a major.

Genetic counselors are professionals who have specialized education in genetics and counseling to provide personalized help patients may need as they make decisions about their genetic health and how genetic conditions may affect their families. Genetic counselors have advanced training in medical genetics and counseling to interpret genetic test results to guide and support patients. Genetic counselors typically receive a bachelor's degree in biology, social science or a related field, and then go on to receive specialized training via a Master's degree in genetic counseling. This track requires selection of a major.

Audiologists examine individuals of all ages and identify those with the symptoms of hearing loss and other auditory, balance, and related sensory and neural disorders. They then assess the nature and extent of the dysfunction and assist patients in the treatment and management of their disorder. Audiologists earn the Doctor of Audiology (Au.D.) degree, as this is the entry level degree for clinical practice. This track requires selection of a major.

Viterbo’s computer science program is 41 credits (internship pathway) or 47 credits (co-op pathway) of core coursework, consisting of computer science, mathematics, information systems, and management courses. In combination with core curriculum, the complete credit load for this program is 98-108 credits. Students will choose a concentration track outside of computer science to apply skills within that area (business, creative design, data science, engineering or mathematics), take part in team-based, industry-related projects embedded into their coursework, and have an internship or co-op experience.

The total credits of the minor requirements are 14. Transfer course, waivers and/or substitutions, and prerequisite courses could modify these credit totals.

Podiatry is a medical specialty focusing on the diagnosis, treatment, prevention, and management of diseases, defects, and injuries to the foot, ankle, and lower limb.

A chiropractor focuses on the diagnosis and treatment of neuromuscular disorders, with an emphasis on treatment through manual adjustment and/or manipulation of the spine.
