A minor comprises a sequence of courses that focus on a particular area of study different from, and secondary to, the major. The Curriculum Committee requires that minors include 18-21 credits of required and elective courses that collectively provide coverage of, and understanding in, the subject area.
Students must take a minimum of six courses, including four required courses and two electives, for a minimum total of 18 credits to complete the Child Study Minor. If a practicum is included, completion of this minor qualifies a student for Office for Child Care Services (OCCS) Certification.
Note: Any course selected for a minor cannot be required for the student’s major. In the event of duplication, the student must select an appropriate substitution for the same by completing a Curriculum Petition to Waive or Substitute a Requirement in consultation with a faculty member who teaches in the minor and the director of the school offering the minor.
Requirements |
Electives – at least two courses (minimum of 6 credits): (6 credits)
- Any other CH course in the Catalog, providing prerequisites are met.
Notes:
Note: If a student wishes to become qualified for the childcare provision, she/he must take one of the Child Study Student Teaching Practica – i.e., either CH 203 or CH 205.
ED 206 is a prerequisite for both CH 203 and CH 205. If a student desires experience working with children in any setting, she/he may take CH 204.
A minimum grade of C- or higher in all program-specific required courses (courses with the designation of CH) is required in this minor. Some courses may have a minimum grade prerequisite that is higher than a C-. Should that be the case, the minimum grade prerequisite of any given course must be met in order to register. |
