Medical Spanish Minor

The Medical Spanish minor is earned by the completion of 12 credit hours = four 3 credit hour courses, which are referred to as ‘badges’ in the Medical Spanish program. Students must earn a minimum grade of ‘C’ in all courses required for the minor. The 12 hours required for the minor must be earned in residence at Rockhurst.

Students who wish to take additional courses to move beyond the minor to pursue the Medical Spanish Certificate must apply for that Certificate program through the “Undergraduate Declaration of Majors, Minors or Certificates” form located under “Important Links” at www.rockhurst.edu/academics/registrar.

A Medical Spanish Certificate cannot be awarded unless the student applies for the certificate program. When that occurs, the minor program will be replaced by the certificate program in the student’s academic record.

Students may not earn a major and a minor, or minor and certificate, in the same area; nor can they apply specific upper-division courses required for a major toward the minor.
