Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University

Minors

Minor courses of study are academic programs designed to satisfy students’ personal interests and to meet their professional needs. Students explore, in some depth, the offerings in a field of study. A minor course of study provides the student with significant experience in a discipline organized around skills, methodology, and subject matter.

A minor program does not provide the depth of knowledge and experience as a major. All minors consist of 15-24 hours of coherent academic coursework. At least 6 hours must be fulfilled at the upper level. In addition, at least 6 hours of coursework applied to a minor must be completed at Embry-Riddle and at least 3 of those hours completed in residence must be at the upperlevel. Students must earn a 2.00 GPA or higher in the minor to complete that program of study successfully.
