The International Relations Minor

To achieve a minor in IR, a student must do passing work in six (6) courses. Only one non-College course may be applied to the minor. All six courses must be taken for a grade, and no course taken on a Pass/Fail basis will count towards the minor. Courses used to satisfy the requirements of the International Relations Minor may be double-counted for other majors. All courses for the minor must be those with the appropriate course attributes for the IR Major/Minor.  We do not accept courses by petition for the minor.

• PSCI0400: Introduction to International Relations
• International History (Choose 2 from courses with AIRH attribute)
• ECON 0500: International Economics OR PSCI 1402: International Political Economy
• Students double-majoring in Economics may use the ECON 4510: International Trade and ECON 4520: International Finance to fulfill this requirement.  In that case, one will count towards the International Economics core requirement, and the other may be used as one of the two electives in the minor.
• Two electives (2 C.U.) coded with coruse attributes AIRE, AIRH, AIRN, AIRP or AIRS

Students pursuing a minor in international relations must adhere strictly to the minor curriculum. We do not accept petitions or grant exceptions to the IR minor
