The International Studies minor is designed to enhance a student’s primary program of study. The minor is most valuable when it represents courses not already applied to another major or minor. A minor in International Studies requires 18 credit hours, 12 of which must be at the 300 level or above. Nine of the 18 credit hours must be in either a single thematic or area concentration. All 18 credit hours must be approved International Studies courses. Pathway courses are not applicable toward the minor.

IS Minor Requirements:

  • 200+ course from any Thematic or Area concentration
  • 200+ course from any Thematic or Area concentration
  • 300+ course from any Thematic or Area concentration
  • 300+ course from  student’s designated Thematic or Area concentration
  • 300+ course from  student’s designated Thematic or Area concentration
  • 300+ course from  student’s designated Thematic or Area concentration

Please refer to the UK Bulletin to identify Thematic and Area concentration courses. Current UK students should consult APEX (located in myUK) and use the ‘Run Selected Program’ feature to identify and monitor progress toward the completion of the minor.
