What minors are available here? Whats the benefit of having a minor?
A minor is usually around 15-18 credits, and can be used to enhance the value of your major, open a particular job market to you, or satisfy an interest area you have. Major/minor pairs can take a variety of forms. For example, an Accounting major with a minor in Africana Studies, a Geology major with a minor in Outdoor Leadership, a History major with an Environmental Science minor, a Textile Engineering major with a minor in Spanish, Political Science with a minor in Journalism. Minors can distinguish your transcript from many others with the same major, and help you stand out in a crowd. You do not have to be accepted by the college to declare a minor – contact the department as soon as you have decided upon a minor for specific details. Paperwork to declare your minor must be completed and filed with the appropriate department at least one semester prior to graduation.
