Integrative Wellness Minor

The Integrative Wellness Minor aims to help students cultivate self-understanding, self-confidence, greater focus and awareness, and self-respect and civility. The minor blends research and "hands-on" practices which equip students to handle life's challenges with knowledge and greater ease. In a non judgmental atmosphere students will have time and opportunities to explore their mental, emotional, physical, and societal selves. 

The following requirements below are intended for students beginning fall 2024.

To declare your minor, please speak to your academic advisor for assistance.
