Curriculum The Catholic studies minor consists of six courses: A Required Course on the Catholic Church Students minoring in Catholic studies must take either TH221 Catholic Church: Life and Thought or TH220 The Catholic Church in the United States. The courses are offered under the auspices of the theology department. The course satisfies the second core curriculum requirement in theology, but it is not required prior to taking other Catholic studies elective courses. Four Intermediate or Upper Division Elective Courses The four intermediate or upper division elective courses must be chosen from approved Catholic studies minor courses in such prescribed subject areas as theology, philosophy, history, English, Biblical studies, fine arts, business studies, and the natural or social Sciences. To ensure the interdisciplinary character of the Catholic studies minor, students may take no more than two of their intermediate or upper division elective courses from the same subject area. Theology majors, pursuing a Catholic studies minor, should take all of their elective courses from academic departments other than theology. View a list of courses that fulfill the minor. Culmination Course All students minoring in Catholic studies must take TH399 Contemporary Catholic Intellectual Life, which integrates the studies and perspectives of the other required and elective courses. It is taught by the theology and philosophy faculties.
