An interdisciplinary minor in the College of Arts and Sciences must consist of six courses and must include either a required introductory course or a concluding seminar or project. Some programs require both. The minor should aim for a coherent shape appropriate to the subject matter and offer courses that give students a definite sense of movement, from a beginning to a middle and an end, from introductory to advanced levels, or from general to specialized treatments. Students must select at least three of the courses from three different A&S departments. With the program director's approval, students may use one core course or one course from their major toward the minor. Students carrying a double major are advised not to minor.
Each minor will be administered by a coordinating committee, consisting of a director appointed by the Dean and at least two additional members who represent departments included in the minor. Minors are open to all undergraduate students and courses prescribed by the requirements of the minor must be accessible to the students.
For specific program requirements see the individual program descriptions below. For further information please email Associate Dean Akua Sarr.
