Thematic Minors

HDFS Thematic Minors:

HDFS Thematic Minors are intended for students who are HDFS majors

Thematic minors are popular options for students majoring in HDFS, since all HDFS majors are required to complete a minor. Thematic minors are developed around a theme identified by the student, using courses from two or more disciplines. HFDS advisors must approve all thematic minors. 

Please  use our Thematic Minor Handbook to review thematic minor requirements and policies, and to read information regarding how to declare your thematic minor with your HDFS advisor. This packet also has a detailed list of courses related to the following themes:

  • Counseling
  • ​Education
  • Health
  • Social Work, Pre Law, and Policy
