Minor in Information

About the Minor

The Information (INFO) minor prepares students to understand, evaluate, and design information environments at the intersection of People, Information, and Technology.
 

Admission Requirements

The INFO minor is available to all University students in good standing, with the exception of students majoring in Information.

Students are required to declare a major before declaring a minor. Students admitted directly into a specific major at the time of matriculation may declare a minor beginning in their second semester. All requirements for the minor must be completed either concurrently with or prior to the completion of the primary major requirements. This ensures that students fulfill the expectations of their primary field of study while completing any additional areas of academic specialization.
