Minor Program


The interdisciplinary minor in aging consists of seven courses, which must include either 01:830:335  Adult Development and Aging or 01:920:303  Social Gerontology, normally taken as introductory courses. Both courses may be counted toward the minor. The remaining courses must be selected from the list below. A minimum of three courses must be taken at the 300 level or above. At least five of the seven courses must be taken outside the student's major, with at least two courses in one other discipline. The minor also requires the completion of a culminating paper that may be done in conjunction with any upper-level course listed below, in a faculty-sponsored independent study course, or as a departmental or school honors project. This paper is considered for approval by two members of the interdisciplinary committee, one of whom may be a faculty member in the student's major.
