Description
The minor in Asian Thought consists of six courses (18 credits), at least three of which (nine credits) must be at the upper-division level. At least 12 credits must be taken for a letter grade. The program is designed to ensure an encounter with the variety of Asian worldviews and a grasp of problems of method and the critical use of sources in the study of the intellectual traditions in Asia. At the discretion of the director of the minor, courses that cover religious topics in other fields (such as HIS and PHI) can also be counted.
