The Constitutional Studies minor provides interdisciplinary training in the politics, history, and philosophy of constitutional government. As an interdisciplinary liberal arts major, it aims to help students achieve the following outcomes: to gain general knowledge of constitutional government in the United States and abroad and to develop effective communication, analytical and critical thinking skills. While completing this minor might constitute excellent preparation for law or graduate school, it is not a prerequisite for any further study of the law.
