This differentiation can give candidates a competitive edge in job searches and offer a broader spectrum of opportunities. - Explore your passions

Pursuing a minor can be intellectually stimulating and enjoyable beyond academic and career considerations. It provides additional opportunities for learning and personal growth, allowing students to engage with new ideas, people, and communities. - Plan for career flexibility听
