Minors can be a great way to enhance your studies. In our department, we offer minors in anthropology and Native American studies. You don’t have to be an anthropology major to sign up for either minor. All students from all majors are welcome to consider these minors.
Both of our minors will enhance what you’re already learning in class. The Native American studies minor is especially helpful to anthropology majors as it will give you a more diverse background, making you a serious competitor in the job market.
