Majors and Minors
Minor in Veterans Studies: The Veterans Studies minor was developed in conjunction with the Gender Studies Program – it requires an introductory course and a capstone course in Veterans Studies (Course #s to be determined) plus 12 credit hours from a selection of courses in your major field of study. Many departmental major courses will count toward this minor.

Minor in Military History / Military Logistics: The Military History/Military Logistics Minor was developed with the help of the Department of History and the College of Business Administration. The minor requires a student to take 3 core courses: MILSCI 1101, MILSCI 1102 (Introduction to Leadership I and II) and PHIL 1130 (Approaches To Ethics). Students then focus their final 9 credit hours in either a military history or operations management track.

Major in Veterans Studies: In concert with the Bachelors in Interdisciplinary Studies program, an exceptional student could “create” his or her own 36-hour interdisciplinary major studying the veteran experience. The Bachelor of Interdisciplinary Studies degree (B.I.S.) provides a flexible, individualized program of study for the self-directed learner. It is developed by each student with advisement by UMSL professional advisers and faculty, and it is intended for students who have unique educational goals that cannot be met by any other UMSL degree program.
