Degree Information

Most of the philosophy courses are also University Studies courses. Therefore, students can complete most of the requirements for a Philosophy Minor while satisfying their University Studies requirements. The electives in the Minor enable students to tailor the program to their own interests and Major.

PASS/NO CREDIT COURSES

Students must take all courses for the Minor on a grade-only basis. The P/NC option is available to non-Minors unless otherwise noted. Courses offered on a pass/no credit-only or grade-only basis are so designated in the course descriptions.
