Sustainability Studies Minor
What is it?
An all-campus minor sponsored by the College of Agriculture and Natural Resources and the School of Public Policy.
Why should I consider completing it?
It will complement any major on campus and provide both intellectual breadth and depth in a challenging new area of inquiry that is gaining a high level of interest in businesses, government agencies, and non-governmental organizations. A minor in Sustainability Studies and a major in a discipline will provide excellent thinking and problem-solving skills for you as a citizen, employee, or graduate student. The minor is ideal for sophomores and juniors, but open to students at any credit-level.
What is required?
15 credits of course work; 6 of which may double-count for your major and one of which may be an internship, research, or study abroad experience.
