Note:

* Designated Topics Courses: Since the subject matter of topics courses changes from term to term, they only count toward the minor if specifically designated by the GWS committee. The topics of LEV 495  are determined in part by the student’s work/internship experiences, and thus need the approval of the GWS faculty to count toward the minor.

In rare cases, students may seek approval from the committee for other courses to be counted toward the minor.
