Additional ProgramsApproved Outside Minors List of Approved Outside MinorsA student may complete up to three minors. The following minors from schools other than the College of Arts and Sciences may be included in that total, and may be listed on the transcript of a College of Arts and Sciences student who completes the appropriate requirements. Minors are listed on the transcript at the point of graduation. Students should see the relevant school and also the College of Arts and Sciences Recorder's Office (Kirkwood Hall 001) for further information. Business-Undergraduate (Kelley School of Business) Special MinorsBusiness minor for Apparel Merchandising majors Kelley School of BusinessStudents certified to earn a bachelor's degree in the College of Arts and Sciences who have already completed 26 or more credit hours of college course work that count toward graduation may obtain the minors listed below from the Kelley School of Business by successfully completing the business course work given for each. Any course in which the student receives a grade below C may not be used to fulfill a minor requirement. An overall grade point average of 2.000 is required to earn each minor. All 300-level courses must be taken on the IU Bloomington campus. The College of Arts and Sciences limits the number to 22 credit hours outside the College that will count toward a degree. Students who are unclear about these rules should check with the College Recorder's Office, Kirkwood Hall 001. Students should fill out an Application for Minor form in the College Recorder's Office during their senior year to have the minors listed on the transcript. Apparel Merchandising and Telecommunications have established their own requirements for a minor in business; students majoring in those areas should consult with their major advisor. Minor in BusinessStudents pursuing a baccalaureate degree on the Bloomington campus in the College of Arts and Sciences; the School of Music; the School of Health, Physical Education, and Recreation; the School of Continuing Studies; or the School of Public and Environmental Affairs may obtain a minor in business by successfully fulfilling the following requirements (course may not be taken through independent study). Complete 26 or more credit hours of college course work that counts toward graduation and be admitted to a degree-granting school.

Earth ScienceCandidates for the B.A. degree who wish to qualify for a secondary teacher's certificate (see below) in earth science or to obtain training in the interdisciplinary field of earth science for any other purpose may do so as majors in either the Department of Geography or the Department of Geological Sciences. For courses that satisfy the requirements for Indiana teacher certification in earth science, see the School of Education Undergraduate Program Bulletin. School of EducationWith very careful planning, a student may earn a teacher's certificate for senior high/junior high/middle school or all-grade education while working toward a bachelor's degree in the College of Arts and Sciences, while still completing the requirements for each in four years. For details, see the School of Education Undergraduate Program Bulletin. Most undergraduate professional education courses numbered 301 and above (except H340, K306, P312, and P313) are closed to students who have not been admitted to the Teacher Education Program.

Minimum Academic Standards for Licensing
A candidate must take certain required course work in three broad categories:
Courses used to satisfy general-education requirements also may be applied to fulfill requirements for a subject matter concentration. In such a case the course may be used to meet all requirements to which it will apply, but the credit hours may be counted only once toward the total 124 credit hours needed for a degree. No courses below the 100 level and no College of Arts and Sciences "J" courses may be used to meet this requirement. Licensure in any of the areas offered by the School of Education of Indiana University requires completion of specified general-education and professional courses in addition to the completion of the subject area or areas. To be eligible for secondary levels and K-12 school settings licensure, at least one content area is required. All secondary and K-12 setting programs are under revision. Please contact a School of Education advisor for accurate and current information.
