Minors and immersions allow students to explore areas that complement their degree or to dig deeper into an area of interest. Bachelor-degree and combined bachelor/master's degree students may pursue a minor, while associate-degree, bachelor-degree, and combined bachelor/master's degree students may pursue an immersion.

Minors

Bachelor-degree and combined bachelor/master's degree students may earn up to two minors by declaring them no later than the petitioning period in their final semester. Twelve or 13 of the 18-21 required credits, depending on the minor, must be completed at Penn College and taken at the 200-level or higher. Successfully completed minors will appear on your official college transcripts.

 

Immersions

Associate-degree, bachelor-degree, and combined bachelor/master's degree students may earn up to two immersions by declaring them no later than the petitioning period in their final semester. Immersions are sequences of interdisciplinary Foundation and/or Perspective courses that allow students to follow a particular interest through Core Education. Each immersion requires 10 credits and, when successfully completed, will appear on your official college transcripts.
