To learn more about academic minors, please visit the Registrar's office for more information.
What is a Minor?
An academic minor formally recognizes a student’s completion of a required set of courses outside their major. To earn a minor, students must be enrolled in a bachelor’s degree program at Michigan Tech, add the minor to their student record before applying for graduation, and complete all minor requirements. The minor will appear on their official transcript upon graduation.
How to Enroll in a Minor
A minor allows an undergraduate student to specialize in a secondary discipline. A student may minor in any subject, provided the title of the minor differs from the title of the student’s major or major concentration.
A student interested in adding this minor should first express their interest to the minor advisor and then use the Request to Change link on the My Degree card in Experience to request the minor. See the Registrar’s Office website for more information.
We recommend that you begin your minor studies as early as possible in your academic career. This minor will take at least four semesters to complete.
