Historic Preservation Minor

Historic preservation is an inherently interdisciplinary field. The minor is particularly well-suited for students studying anthropology, architecture, history, the history of art and architecture, landscape architecture, and planning, public policy and management. Undergraduate students, no matter their major, are eligible to enroll in the minor, however.
