Objectives

People considering leadership in their community or profession may desire a minor in leadership. The leadership minor is available to any student pursuing an undergraduate degree at SFA. Students who wish to add this minor to their degree plan must present their plan to the Division of Multidisciplinary Programs for final review and approval. Students who declare a leadership minor may not use electives to count as credits in both their minor and major programs of study. For example, communication studies majors must take non-COM courses from the electives if a COM course is counted as credit toward their major. It is possible for three hours of internship credit to be substituted as an elective at the discretion of the director of the Division of Multidisciplinary Programs.
