Cross-school minors offer students the opportunity to explore a number of non-liberal arts fields through structured coursework taken at other NYU schools. These minors, which are open to all students in the College of Arts and Science, are either partly or wholly composed of courses from schools such as NYU’s College of Global Public Health; Silver School of Social Work; Steinhardt School of Culture, Education, and Human Development; Stern School of Business; Tisch School of the Arts; Tandon School of Engineering; and Wagner School of Public Service.
Students interested in pursuing a cross-school minor are encouraged to view minor requirements and to contact a minor representative with any questions. Links to minor-specific pages and contact information can be found on the NYU cross-school minors website (www.nyu.edu/cross-school-minors). For additional advising support, CAS students should utilize the cross-school advising resources for the school that hosts the minor.
With the exception of courses taken for the completion of the cinema studies minor, all courses taken outside the College to complete cross-school minor requirements count toward the 16-point limit on course work in other NYU divisions. Since many of these minors require 16 points of coursework outside the College, students are strongly encouraged to develop their course of study in consultation with a CAS adviser. Courses taken within the College (with a -UA suffix) to complete cross-school minor requirements will not count toward the 16-point limit. Students seeking additional non-CAS credits above the 16-point limit must speak with their academic adviser in the College Advising Center (726 Broadway, 7th floor; 212-998-8130).
With the exception of courses taken for the completion of a cinema studies minor, no courses taken in the other schools of NYU (whether for a cross-school minor or as electives) may count toward the 64 credits of CAS (-UA) courses that all CAS students are required to complete.
The minors offered by other NYU schools that are available to CAS students are listed on the NYU cross-school minors website (above). For further information about the business studies, child and adolescent mental health studies, cinema studies, law and society, and science and society minors, please consult the relevant sections of this Bulletin.
Please note that College of Arts and Science students may not declare a cross-school minor in a field of study that is offered in the College.
