Approved Electives for the Environmental Studies Minor
- Two courses are required from each category (A and B).
- At least one course in Category A should have a lab.
- Only one course in each category may be a 鈥渃ognate鈥 course. Cognate courses, marked with an asterisk, are valuable for minor but are not as centrally focused on environmental studies methodologies and materials as other courses on the list.
- Pay close attention to 鈥渄ouble-counting鈥 rules for your major. You are encouraged to choose electives outside of your major.
