CNR - Minoring in LATAMST or Chicano Studies?

<p>Does this sound like a good idea? I was planning on filling up most of my breadth reqs (i'm CRS major - We don't need to do all 7 areas but about 4) with latin american stuff and would um hopefully like to also learn spanish? ahah it's alot but i wonder how feasible this seems to y'all. i'd ideally like to study abroad in south america.</p>

<p>Minors can have maximum a one UD course overlap with your major.</p>

<p>The OP is a student in the CNR, with a major of CRS. That has only two breadth requirements. One course chosen from the arts/literature, philosophy/values or historical studies, and a second course from either social/behavioral or international studies areas. If the OP selects 2 courses about Latin America that fit one of those requirements each, it fits the requirement.</p>

<p>Very unlikely to be an overlap between a CRS major upper division course and the UD courses for a minor in ethnic studies at L&S.</p>

<p>I believe the OP is then asking whether they can take a degree in CRS from the college of natural resources with a minor in chicano/latino studies from the college of L&S. If I misunderstood the question, then ignore all this.</p>

<p>Majors from two colleges are called simultaneous degrees rather than double degrees. What would you call a minor from a different college?</p>

<p>OP - it does look like you could study abroad in Latin America and potentially use that towards the minor requirements (assuming that cross college minors are okay). </p>

<p>The requirements of the minor are (from the ethnic studies department website):</p>

<p>The minor in Chicano Studies consists of completion of five upper division courses from: 101, 110, 130, 133, 135A, 135B, 135C, 141, 142, 143, 145, 148, 149, 150A, 150B, 159, 161, 162, 163, 165, 172, 174, 176, 179 or 180. Students may also use one approved course from another department or EAP.</p>

<p>Sweet, thanks Rider</p>
