The Human Rights minor gives a firm grounding in the international human rights system and then allows students the flexibility to choose electives according to their specific interests. The minor can accompany any major.

Internships, Research Opportunities, and More

The Source Project offers a two-course human rights sequence that enables first-year students to learn research methodologies drawn from social sciences and the humanities. In these courses, students look at the various ways scholars and human rights workers define research questions about human rights past and present and how research can be used to protect and promote human flourishing in difficult times.

Students design their own research projects, participate in ongoing research, and learn how to communicate their findings. The program's courses count toward the human rights minor, as well as the global, humanities, and social sciences general education requirements.
