Minor Requirements

Minors offered in the School of Social Ecology include:

A minor consists of a coordinated set of courses (seven or more), which together take a student well beyond the introductory level in an academic area, yet not sufficient to constitute a major. All minors are available to students regardless of their major with the exception that students may not minor in the same topic as their major. Minors are listed on a student's final transcript but are not on the baccalaureate diploma.

For certification in a minor, a student must obtain a minimum overall GPA of at least a 2.0 in all courses required for the minor program. No more than two courses applied to a minor may be taken Pass/Not Pass.
