Faculty of Arts Minor Concentrations or Minors

The Arts minor concentrations available to B.A. & Sc. students are listed here. Since the B.A. & Sc. degree requires a certain number of credits in the arts and in the sciences, there are special requirements for B.A. & Sc. students. To be counted as an arts minor or minor concentration, the program must include at least 15 credits of arts courses. Similarly, to be counted as a science minor or minor concentration, the program must include at least 15 credits of science courses.

For example, a student completing the 18-credit African Studies Minor Concentration in Arts must complete at least 15 of those credits in arts courses and at most 3 credits in science courses. As another example, a student completing a 24-credit Science Minor in Interdisciplinary Life Sciences must complete at least 15 credits in science courses and at most 9 credits in arts courses.
