Interdisciplinary
Minors
Interdisciplinary
minors intersect several
disciplines and promote
shared knowledge. Moreover, interdisciplinary minors prepare students
for a world where careers increasingly bridge a wide spectrum of
academic disciplines. The College of Humanities & Social Sciences
offers several interdisciplinary minors: African-American Studies;
Cognitive Science; Interdisciplinary Family Studies; Modern European
Studies; Medieval Studies; Religious Studies; Women & Gender
Studies; and International Studies. As the world continues to change,
interdisciplinary minors help students move beyond the confines of
traditional academic disciplines and focus on cultural and gender
diversity, multiple ways of knowing, spirituality, and the discovery
of new knowledge.
Exciting
possibilities might include: an English major with a minor in Religious
Studies preparing for a career as a writer/editor of religious texts,
or a business major with a minor in African/African American Studies
or International Studies enrolling in graduate school to pursue a
master’s degree in International Business.
