Information Technology Minor

Minor Field of Undergraduate Study Policy - The purpose of this policy is to establish minor fields of study at North Carolina A&T State University. The policy states that a minor may be offered only in a field for which there is a corresponding major or authorized undergraduate certificate program; 12 of the 13 minor credits must be in courses at the 200-level or above; a student must complete at least 24 hours of academic credits before declaring a minor and must have a minimum GP A 2.5; and a student may not have more than two minors regardless of the student's major. The Faculty Senate Curriculum Committee must approve all minors. This policy is consistent with other institutions in the UNC System. The minor will be printed on the transcript and not the diploma.

The purpose of establishing a minor in information Technology is that specific program courses align with multiple majors across campus. Allied majors include Construction Management, Civil Engineering, Landscape Architecture, Architectural Engineering, and Biological Engineering. All of these majors would benefit from the added breadth offered by this field.
