Double-counting note: Weinberg College prohibits double-counting a minor course toward some other major or minor, except where this is explicitly permitted in this catalog. Weinberg College does allow double-counting a minor course toward a general bachelor's degree requirement (i.e. degree requirements other than majors or minors). Other programs or schools may have their own restrictions that supersede this, so check the relevant parts of this catalog for possible limits.

Minor Requirements (8 units)

• Each course must be chosen from the approved MENA studies list for the quarter or with the director and must relate to the Middle East or North Africa.
• At most two courses from study abroad may count towards the MENA studies minor.
• Foreign language study is not required for the minor, and no more than 2 courses may be Arabic, Hebrew, or Turkish language courses.
• At least 2 courses should be selected in each of the three disciplinary categories: history, social sciences, and humanities (see lists on the MENA major page, and updates on the MENA Studies website).
• Students who satisfactorily complete two years of language study in Arabic, Hebrew, or Turkish may complete the minor with only 6 disciplinary courses.
• Native-speaker proficiency does not count for course credit; native speakers may count 2 non­native MENA language courses among the 8 courses.
