The 15-credit Minor in Human Rights consists of two core human rights courses—a 3-credit introductory course and a 3-credit internship—plus three 3-credit cognate courses on specific human rights topics. (One of the three cognate courses may be in the student’s major field of study; the others must be in different disciplines.) To be accepted into the Minor program, a student must have completed HR 200 (Introduction to Human Rights) with a grade of B (3.0) or better and have a cumulative GPA of 3.0 or higher.

Core Human Rights courses required for the Minor:

HR 200: Introduction to Human Rights (offered in Fall and Spring semesters, open to all students)

HR 250: Human Rights Internship (offered in Fall, Spring, and Summer semesters; open to HRP students only)
