Minors & Concentrations

Get a well-rounded education by expanding your knowledge of your undergraduate degree - choose a minor that correlates well with program of study, or define it further with a concentration.

Begin with comprehensive coursework within your undergraduate major, then expand and support your educational understanding with a college minor that helps you explore a course of studies that complements your major. Or make an even deeper impact in your major with a concentration that refines the direction of your studies. At Hilbert College, we’ll help you explore both options. 

Minors

Academic minors allow you to learn about subjects outside your undergraduate degree major, an alternative that will both complement your main field of study and increase your career and professional marketability in today's rapidly changing work environment.

Consult with your academic adviser for more information about pursuing a minor at Hilbert. Your adviser can help you determine what college minor would most enhance your academic major as well as your career objectives.

Pursuing a Minor

To pursue a minor, you must have:

✓ Reached Sophomore status (30+ credits)
✓ Completed the Minor Application form
✓ Received approval from minor chair  
✓ Received approval from major chair  

Students must achieve a C or higher in all courses pertaining to the minor.
