Applied Minors (AMs) are distinctive programs that allow you to personalize your education and help you make direct connections between academic interests and co-curricular activities. Based around a theme, each AM creates a space for you to integrate 4-6 academic courses, co-curricular work like service or athletics, and a final project appropriate to the content. Completing an AM (or multiple AMs) is an optional opportunity for all students. The Applied Minor Declaration Form is available on the Office of the Registrar’s website.
