Students studying in other disciplines often find a minor in Education to be of value. To serve these students, the College of Education offers a minor in Education. The 18-hour minor provides basic grounding in education practices while encouraging students to explore more focused areas in the professional coursework. This minor does not lead to licensure or endorsement. A minor must be added to a major.

Minors can be added to a major so long as the programs of study are different and all courses must be completed. A student cannot be awarded a degree with just a minor. Courses within the minor can double count in the major as long as 1/3 of the courses are unique to the major or any other minor.
