American Studies Minor

Requirements for the Minor

A minimum of six (6) courses, including one English and one History core course, are required.  (See above under major.)

A student must take four (4) additional courses, chosen in consultation with the student’s minor advisor, from the American Studies approved course list, which must have either a historic or thematic concentration. One of the four must come from Division I (Arts & Humanities) and one from Division II (Social Sciences). One course must cover issues of race and ethnicity or gender in America. No course for the minor can double count towards a student’s major or second minor.
