Minor Requirements

A total of 24 semester hours, approved by the director of the North Carolina Studies Program, is required for the minor. Courses taken to meet general education requirements cannot be used to satisfy the minor, but 3 semester hours of course work from a student's major can be accepted as credit toward the minor. 

Students are required to declare the minor through the office of the NCST Program Director.
