Undergraduate Minors

A minor is intended to support the major coursework and aid students in considering their program of study in an interdisciplinary manner. Although a minor is not required for most majors, students are encouraged to consider selecting a minor in consultation with their advisor and may select a maximum of two minors. Selecting an optional minor may require additional credit hours above the 120 hours required for all undergraduate degrees.
