Enhance Your Academics with a Minor

Choosing your major is a big deal—it's the core of your college experience and often the launchpad for your career. But what if we told you there’s an easy, low-commitment way to make that launchpad even bigger and better? That's where a minor comes in!

Why Should I get a minor?

Adding a minor allows you to build a broader skill set and knowledge base, instantly making you more adaptable in any job, and more marketable as a potential employee. In today's competitive landscape, employers aren't just looking for deep expertise; they're looking for candidates who can think across multiple disciplines.

Beyond the career boost, a minor is a fantastic opportunity to explore an academic passion or interest you might have. Maybe you love writing stories or poems but chose Business as your major—you could get a minor in Creative Writing. Or maybe you’re a Biology major who just can’t get enough science—add a Chemistry minor!

Think of a minor as your chance to follow your curiosity, making your degree path more personally fulfilling and academically rich. It’s an efficient way to structure your elective credits while maximizing your potential for success after graduation.

How to Add a Minor

The first step toward adding a minor is to speak with your advisor. They can provide the best guidance regarding how it will fit with your current academic program. Your advisor will then submit an application to the registrar's office on your behalf.
