Minors

In order to provide students with additional opportunities to broaden and enrich their educations, the University offers 18 minors. A minor is a program of study that is distinct from and supplements a student's major. A minor may be taken as a way to give a coherent pattern to elective hours, to expand career options, to prepare for graduate study, or simply to explore in greater depth an area different from one's major.
