The minor is to provide students with a flexible, coherent and guided
study of political science as it relates to their special academic major
or personal interests. The minor requires a minimum of 15 hours in political
science of which 9 hours must be taken in junior-senior level courses.
All minors must take PLS 105, PLS 209, and a senior seminar (PLS 491,
492, 493 or 494). In addition, the student must take 6 hours of junior-senior
level courses representing a coherent program of study and meeting the
approval of a Political Science faculty advisor. It is the role of the
student's departmental advisor to help work out a specific program coinciding
with the student's interests and needs.
