Political Science Minor

The Political Science Minor will require 18 credits (six courses).  One of these six courses--POL 1000--is required.  A minimum of three of the remaining five courses must be at the upper-division (i.e., 3000 or 4000) level.  Of the five elective courses, one must be chosen from each of the subfields plus one additional elective from any POL course.

Minor Requirements--18 credit hours

The 18 credit minor in political science provides students with a flexible program that will allow a broad understanding of the various aspects of the discipline.  The program will provide the basic foundation in the introductory class followed by a sampling of the subfields.  The minimum of three upper-division courses will provide the student with a more in-depth understanding of at least two subfields in which the student has the greatest interests.
