The minor in Catholic studies is an important aspect of our educational mission as a contemporary Catholic college.

It provides you with an opportunity to explore the richness of the Catholic intellectual, cultural, social and ethical traditions from academic perspectives. You are invited into an appreciative and critical study of the influence of Catholic belief and practice on the development of religion and culture.

Minor Requirements


The minor consists of five courses (20 credits): a RTS 1000 level course with a focus on Christianity, and four other courses (see below).

In addition, 20 hours of service with reflection in light of Catholic social teaching (service hours done for other classes or programs such as service learning or campus ministry may be counted).
