Course Planning
Students planning to pursue the minor should complete the Human-Centered Design Minor Student Worksheet and submit it to Professor Peter Robbie. Keep the following considerations and guidance in mind when planning out your HCD minor.
Courses counted toward one's major cannot be used to satisfy requirements of the HCD minor. Satisfactory completion of the minor requires a grade point average of 2.0 in the courses beyond the prerequisites suitable for satisfying the minor.
Except for Math 3, none of the courses listed for the minor may be taken under the non-recording option.
Section 1: Design Foundation courses may be taken concurrently with other required elective courses. However, before taking courses under Section 3: Design Electives, it is recommended that students complete both courses under Section 1: Design Foundation and at least one course under Section 2: Ethnographic Methods and Human Factors/Psychology.
Engineering sciences majors: Aside from ENGS 21, only ENGS courses numbered below 20 may be counted towards the minor. Engineering sciences majors will take ENGS 21 as one of their major requirements and it will also count as the prerequisite to the HCD minor.
