Liberal Arts Minors

The School of Liberal Arts now offers FIT students the opportunity to take a minor in a particular area.  Students will be able to minor in a variety of liberal arts areas in two forms:  traditional subject-based minors and interdisciplinary minors unique to the FIT liberal arts curriculum.

In spring 2010, you will be able to declare a minor in:

• Asian Studies
• Film and Media
• French
• History of Art
• Italian
• Japanese
• Latin American Studies
• Spanish

In fall 2010, you will be able to declare a minor in:

• Communication Studies
• Dance and Performing Arts
• Economics
• English:  Literature
• English:  Writing
• Fashion Studies
• Mathematics
• Sustainability

In the near future, we would like to offer minors in American Studies, History, Political Science, and Psychology, Sociology and Meditative Arts.

Declaring a minor is simple.  Visit the Liberal Arts Center for Advisement to create the best plan of action for completing the 15 course credits in a timely manner (two 3-credit introductory courses and three 3-credit in-depth courses).  Upon successful completion of the selected 15 course credits with a 2.0 or higher GPA, your minor will be recorded on your transcript.

Transfer students can transfer up to six (6) credits for any academic minor.
