Application Template for Graduate Human Rights Minor (DOC)

Admission to the Graduate Human Rights Minor (HRM) is restricted to graduate students, and doctoral or professional students already enrolled in a degree program at the University of Minnesota. A G.P.A. of 3.0 is required. Students wishing to pursue the minor will submit a letter of application to the Human Rights Program in the Institute for Global Studies. The letter of application should describe the student’s background and motivation for applying to the program. Further information may be requested by the Director of Graduate Studies (DGS). In general, students must take courses listed outside their home departments (unless the courses are cross-listed with other departments) to count them toward the graduate minor. Both master’s degree and doctoral students are strongly encouraged to declare the minor when filing the Degree Program form. The Degree Program form is available on the Graduate School website.
