Reading Minor - Undergraduate
Background information on minors (from undergraduate catalog 2005-07)
Each student majoring in elementary education is required to select, at the
time of admission, an academic field of interest for a concentration or minor.
Minors are selected from university approved minors identified in the undergraduate
catalog but to be approved for the program, the minor must at least satisfy
the criteria established for a concentration. A concentration is an in-depth
study, beyond the requirements of the elementary major which involves an additional
field of certification or academic emphasis in a specific discipline. It will
be 15 semester hours, distinct of the credits required by the major and including,
whenever possible, at least one upper-level course which has prerequisites
stated in the catalog description. Students may change their concentration/minor
upon approval.
