Regulations Concerning Minors
Minors Defined, Titles
A minor consists of 18�24 graduation credits which must include a minimum of 9 graduation credits of �advanced course work� (defined as course work requiring at least one prerequisite course and/or courses at or above the 300 level.)
No student may use a minor title that is the same as the title of the student�s major.
Only the following are acceptable minor titles to appear on the academic record:
�Combined with Major� for approved combined major and minor programs
Titles approved by the Curriculum Committee or by the Interdisciplinary Studies Committee of the Undergraduate Academic Council
�Interdisciplinary� if approved by the Interdisciplinary Studies Committee of the Undergraduate Academic Council
Students Required to Complete a Minor:
A student is required to complete a minor if the student has only one major and that major is neither an approved �combined major and minor� nor an approved �departmental major.�
If the student with a single, non-combined, non-departmental major has only one minor, the same course may not be used to fulfill the requirements of both the major and the discrete minor. I.e., no �double counting� between the major and minor is allowed.
However, if that student has two or more minors, the same course may be �double counted� toward the major and one of the minors. (�Double counting� among minors is never allowed.)
Students Not Required to Complete a Minor:
A student with two or more majors or a major that is either an approved �combined major and minor� or an approved �departmental major� is not required to have a discrete minor, but the student may elect to have one or more minors listed on the academic record.
If the student does elect one or more minors, the same course may be �double counted� toward the major (or even more than one of the majors) and toward one of the minors. (�Double counting� among minors is never allowed.)
Similarly, if the student in a �combined major and minor program� elects one or more minors, the same course may be �double counted� toward the �minor� requirements of the combined major and toward one of the minors. Naturally, students in a combined major and minor program who complete one or more discrete minors nevertheless must complete all requirements in the combined major program.
NOTE: For students with two or more majors, the display of more than the first and second majors on the student�s official transcript will not be possible before fall 2003. Until the full listing becomes possible, students with multiple majors desiring to declare one or more minors must do so in the Office of the Vice Provost for Undergraduate Education, LC 30. Once satisfactory completion of the minor(s) has been verified, a separate official document will be issued by the Office of the Vice Provost for Undergraduate Education verifying which minor or minors have been completed.
Multiple Minors
Students may declare two or more minors, but the same course may not be applied to more than one of the minors. (I.e., �double counting� among minors is never allowed.) However, the same course may be applied to one of the minors and to one (or more) of the applicable majors.
