Economics Minor Requirements

For the economics minor, a minimum grade of C- or better is required for all courses meeting the requirements and courses may not be taken satisfactory/unsatisfactory. Courses directly equivalent to JHU courses from study abroad or taken at other universities may count towards requirements; however non-direct equivalent courses must be approved by the department’s director of undergraduate studies.  In all cases, at least 3 of the 6 required economics courses of the minor must be taken at JHU.  Internships and independent studies courses do not apply towards minor requirements.
