Minors & Concentrations
A minor allows you to pursue an area of interest in a field outside of your major. Students who choose to pursue minors often do so to complement their existing course of study and as a means to increase their marketability. Students enrolled in the human services degree program who wish to pursue a minor may do so by applying to the department holding the minor.
A student wishing to pursue a minor must be at least a sophomore and must obtain the written permission of the student's own division chair and the chair of the division offering the minor. To earn credit for a minor, a student must achieve a grade of "C" or better in all required courses.
