Students may select any minor or certificate available at Kent State, but it should be aligned with the student's overall educational and career goals. Number of credit hours depends on the program selected. A minimum of 6 credit hours in the minor must be outside of the course requirements for any major or other minor the student is pursuing. Students must successfully complete one domestic diversity course (DIVD) and one global diversity course (DIVG). Please consult with a Kent State Academic Advisor.
