Minor in Law

About the Minor

The undergraduate minor in Law provides students with an overview of the U.S. legal system and its relationship to social, political and economic institutions. The Law minor prepares students to identify legal issues and approaches across a wide variety of fields—from criminal justice to technology to civil rights to advocacy. Students can take advantage of a wide range of electives to focus on the legal questions most relevant to their interests.

Admissions Requirements

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.
