A minor study allows serious participation in a secondary interest area without the burden of designing a more comprehensive interdisciplinary program as required for an individually planned combined major. The election of a minor study program is optional.
Minor study programs include 15 to 20 credits within the particular field or area to be completed with a minimum grade-point average of 2.000. The approved minor programs are:
|
Anthropology Art Art History Astronomy Biology Chemistry Chinese Classical Studies Computer Science Creative Writing Dance
|
Data Science Economics English Film and Media Studies Finance French and Francophone Studies Gender Studies Geology German Studies Global Literatures Hispanic Studies History Indigeneity, Race, And Ethnicity Studies Japanese |
Latin American Studies Mathematics Music Philosophy Physics Politics Psychology Religion Rhetoric, Writing and Public Discourse Sociology Theater
|
Specific requirements for each of the minor study programs may be found in the respective departmental or area listing in the Courses and Programs section. Unless approved by the appropriate departments and/or programs, courses used for minor requirements may not also be applied to requirements in the major or any other minor. In addition, a minimum of three-fifths of the specific course and credit requirements for the minor must be completed in the on-campus program of the college. Refer to the specific major and minor descriptions elsewhere in the catalog.
