The Minor in Power and Inequality<\/strong> is designed to help students learn and engage with social issues, especially <\/span>those related to ongoing inequalities in the U.S. and abroad. <\/span>The Minor in Power and Inequality is designed <\/span>for students who want to understand better and participate in policy initiatives, social analysis, and <\/span>activism aimed at addressing inequality<\/span> . The Minor in Power and Inequality is ideal for those who seek to <\/span>pursue careers in law, education, development, civil service and government, law enforcement, public health, <\/span>
and nonprofit organizations.<\/span><\/p>\n


The Minor in Power and Inequality consists of <\/span>six courses<\/span> totaling <\/span>18 credits<\/span> . This includes two required <\/span>introductory courses, one intermediate course, and three electives.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n


The Minor in Power and Inequality can be easily combined with Majors in other departments. If combined with a <\/span>Major in Anthropology, four of the six courses (12 of the 18 credits) can overlap between the Major and the <\/span>Minor and <\/span>only 2 extra courses (6 extra credits) are required.<\/span><\/p>\n
