Academic Minors

A minor is a program of study, with less depth than a major. It may be completed to complement or as an addition to a major. A minor has a minimum of 15 credit hours (minimum of) 3 lower division, minimum of 9 upper division credit hours, and remaining 3 from either lower or upper division.  

Methodist College students electing a minor can meet with an advisor from participating faculty to help guide them in choosing courses to fulfill the requirements of the minor. A minor must be an elective choice - a student cannot be required to complete one as part of the requirements for a major. 

A maximum of 6 transfer credits can be applied toward an academic minor.

Students can obtain a minor in the following concentrations:

• Arts & Humanities 
• Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion Studies
• Health Sciences
• Mathematics and Science
• Philosophy
• Psychology
• Social and Behavioral Sciences

A complete description of the minors and curriculum are available in the Academic Catalog.
