Requirements: The minor comprises at least 15 credit hours of College of Arts and Sciences course work including the following:

1. I100 (3 credit hours).

2. Two introductory International Studies courses (6 credit hours) chosen from the six 200-level core courses (I201, I202, I203, I204, I205, and I206), which serve as gateways into each of the six thematic concentrations. One of these two core courses must introduce the thematic concentration in which the student chooses to focus (see #3 below).

3. Students must choose two approved electives at the 300-400 level (6 credit hours) in one of the six thematic concentrations in which they wish to focus. These thematic concentrations are Culture and the Arts, Global Health and Environment, Global Integration and Development, Human Rights and Social Movements, International Communications and Nations, States and Boundaries

4. If students choose coursework outside the College in partial fulfillment of their concentrations, they will need to take additional College of Arts and Sciences approved electives in the thematic concentration to bring the minimum total of College of Arts and Sciences hours in the minor to 15.

Courses taken to fulfill minor requirements may be cross-listed with courses taken to fulfill students' requirements in their major, except in cases where the major department prohibits or limits it.

Declaring the minor: Students are encouraged to stop in during the advisor's walk-in hours to declare International Studies as a minor. Declaring a minor takes only a few minutes.
