4. Humanities and social science electives to meet General Education Requirements must include: One course in the study of literature (3 hours); One course in the study of history, philosophy, or religion, (3 hours); One course in the study of visual and performing arts. Alternatively, this requirement may be fulfilled by a course in the study of history. (3 hours); Two courses from different content areas, in the study of psychology, economics, politics and government, sociology, anthropology and cultural geography (6 hours); Two additional courses selected within Humanities and Social Sciences (6 hours); One course must come from the Science, Technology and Society, Humanities Perspectives list. Among the courses selected to fulfill the Humanities and Social Sciences requirement at least one must focus on a non-English speaking culture.

5. Students are strongly encouraged to complete a minor in a closely related field, and should consult with an advisor in the minor department for the most current requirements. A list of available minors can be viewed at http://www.ncsu.edu/advising_central/minors.html. Students in the Nutritional Sciences major will not be given credit for a Minor in Nutrition. Free elective courses taken as credit only may not apply toward a minor.
