The Minor in Energy and Resources offers undergraduates the opportunity to develop basic knowledge and skills to help them address the complex and interdependent issues associated with the interaction of social, economic, political, technical, and environmental factors. Though it is designed primarily to complement majors in the natural sciences and engineering, students in any major with the appropriate prerequisites may pursue the ERG Minor. Based on a six-course set of prerequisites in mathematics and natural sciences, the minor is satisfied by completing five upper division courses, including two core courses and three electives.
