The Minor Concentration
All departments offering majors also offer minor concentrations in the same field. Some departments also offer minors in more specialized areas. Other minors are offered in areas with no corresponding major, including:
- African, African American, Diaspora Studies
- Development Studies
- Education, including Early Childhood, Elementary and Secondary
- Environmental Studies
- Family Studies
- Latin American Studies
- Legal Studies
- Management
- Public Policy
- Urban Studies
Minor concentrations consist of at least five interrelated courses, at least one of which is taken at an advanced level (300 level or above). Students planning minors may consult with appropriate major advisors about guidelines and restrictions. Only one course in a minor program may also be counted toward the student's major, and no course may be included in more than one minor program.
