Minors with specific courses

A minor consists of a list of courses for at least 30 credits, which must be acquired individually, course by course. Some minors have a study plan (which you can find below), others don’t and the courses must be chosen together with the minor director, according to the student’s background.

A list of all minors mentioning whether or not they are recommended by the student’s section is located in the Minors file.
