Minors

A minor consists of at least 15 semester hours, with no fewer than nine credits at the 3000 level or higher.* A student may select any minor permitted by their major degree program faculty. Regardless of whether a minor, concentration, or emphasis area is required, courses may not be used to fulfill a second minor, concentration, or emphasis area. Even though a course may satisfy two requirements, the credits will only count once toward total hours. Students are encouraged to contact the department offering the minor for advising.

Specific requirements for minors are detailed below.

Fulfilling Course Prerequisites

A number of courses in the minors have prerequisite courses. Students should select a minor and take any prerequisite courses as early as possible in their academic careers. Please consult individual course listings for prerequisites.
