Introduction[edit | edit source]

There are a number of possible minors that can be done at University of Maine at Presque Isle (UMPI). Some of these are possible, others are not. Always check the UMPI minor catalog to confirm if a minor still exists before making plans to complete it.

Compared to other colleges, getting minors at UMPI is relatively quick and cheap to get.

Reasons to Pick a Minor[edit | edit source]

Picking a minor can be just as important as picking a major. Minors can enhance your degree in a variety of ways. Here are some of the things that a minor could do for you:

  • Allow you to explore a new topic in a higher education setting
  • Expand on your major and increase your knowledge in that subject area
  • Provide new content to make you a more marketable professional

While minors are not a requirement, they are an exciting option for undergraduate students. By choosing one of UMPI's minors, you can provide yourself with new knowledge, skills, and experiences. Not only can a minor add value to your education — it can also enrich your life.

Minor Requirements[edit | edit source]

The following are what is required for each minor.

  • Each minor course has to be offered by UMPI YourPace or you need to transfer it in.
  • Each minor requires 9 unique credits of the required credits that can't overlap another minor.
  • All other credits can overlap each other
  • There are no residency requirements except for the BLS has a 9cr residency requirement for the 1st minor.
  • You can do a max of 3 minors
  • You need to get permission to take minors that are outside of YourPace.
