Core Requirements:

A minor in Japanese Studies requires 18 semester credit hours in JAPN courses beyond the 202 level, however JAPN 150W  can count for the minor.  Students can count one course outside of the program provided it has significant Japan-related content (students should consult the course listing under AMES). Courses taken while participating in study-abroad programs can count towards the minor with program approval. Minors are encouraged to take AMES 250  or HIST 141  or HIST 142 . No course for the minor may be taken pass/fail.
