Note: Students majoring in PP&E and Law and Policy cannot minor in Law and Policy.

The Law and Policy minor provides students with a strong liberal arts foundation for the study of law and policy. The interdisciplinary nature of the program invites students to engage with a variety of different perspectives on the social and legal problems facing societies on local, state, national, and global levels. Students develop a deep appreciation for the complex relationships between law, society, culture, and politics. The coursework helps equip students for careers in a wide range of fields, including education, government, law, non-governmental organizations (NGOs), policy development, human rights work, and community and labor organizing. 

 

All courses in the minor must be completed with a cumulative 2.0 GPA. Students may request to transfer up to 10 credits to be applied toward the courses fulfilling the minor.
