Military Science Minor
Minor in Military Sciences offers coursework from a number of departments including the Departments of Military Science, History, Government and Geography. This path allows the student to pursue a diverse program that incorporates military history, ethics, public administration and the use of the military as an instrument of educational enhancement. While the Military Science classes are taught through a military lens, the components of adaptability, teamwork, comprehensive fitness, leadership and critical thinking are interdisciplinary and applicable regardless of a student's chosen future career paths.
