Undergraduate Minor
Complete requirements for the minor can be found in the course catalog listing or HEST advising sheet:
To enroll in the minor or request consideration for substitutions for the requirements, please contact Mr. Brett Jeter in 238B Rogers Hall, 541-737-7991or email him via brett.jeter@oregonstate.edu. We note that MyDegrees does not do a good job of aligning coursework with the minor requirements, please contact Mr. Jeter for assistance. Dr. Nordica MacCarty can also be contacted via nordica.maccarty@oregonstate.
If you are interested in the minor, a good place to start is to select your Bacc Core courses from the humanitarian engineering, science and technology (HEST) playlist. Courses marked by a '+' are specifically recommended because of the relevance of the material or because they are taught by a HEST-affiliated faculty member. Note that HEST310, HEST320, and HEST 412/512 are all currently approved to fill Bacc Core requirements for any student on campus.
