Standard Focus - Leadership Studies Minor
Developed as the first model for the leadership studies minor, the standard focus allows students to select electives that can relate with their academic major. Students will complete the four core classes (see Course Requirements) and have the opportunity to select one course from the following three elective categories.

Students can work with their major academic advisor to see if any of the elective courses will fulfill the requirements for their academic major, as well as the leadership studies minor.
