Educational Studies Minor

The Educational Studies minor provides an opportunity for students to explore the interdisciplinary field of Education, alongside focused, substantial work in their major disciplines. It is an avenue for supporting and recognizing the sustained engagement of students who have an interest in Education policy and/or practice, but not necessarily a desire to pursue certification and/or an Educational Studies major.
