Choosing Your Minor/Second Concentration:

Choosing a minor for your degree is optional. However, it allows you to focus your electives and means that you have studied two subjects thoroughly, rather than just one. In addition, if you are debating between two majors, a minor means you don’t need to choose between the two. Early in your degree you can reverse your minor and major with ease if you decide you enjoy studying your minor more.

See the information on Choosing Your Major if you need some guidance on how to choose your minor, as the same principles would apply.

Wondering just what a major, minor, or concentration is?

A major is a specific area of study in a four-year degree program and consists of at least 42 credits (and more in some programs) and at most 72. A minor is a secondary area of study in a four-year degree program and consists of 18-24 credits. A first concentration is a specific area of study in a three-year degree program and consists of 24-42 credits. A second concentration is a secondary area of study in a three-year degree program and consists of 18-24 credits.
