Additionally, there are other courses offered less regularly in a variety of departments that contribute to this minor, some as selected topics courses, some as particular content under a fixed course number that carries variable content depending on what semester it is taught. Each semester the Registrar will provide a searchable list of courses for use in the minor via Self Service.

After students declare as a minor, they will be required to write a brief (2-page) paper on how their experience of two different departments encouraged them to think differently about the topic. This will be assessed by the Minor core faculty, and may replace an existing assignment in one of our courses for Minor students.
