Construction Science, Minor

Enrollment in the minor in construction science program requires approval of the Director of the Construction Science Division.  A minimum GPA of 2.5 is required to enter the minor and must be maintained to remain in the program and receive the minor. To enter the program, this form must be completed and returned to the CNS academic adviser.

The requirements for a minor must be completed concurrently with the major degree requirements. No minor may be added by completing courses after receiving the bachelor’s degree.

• The minor is not intended to prepare a student for professional practice in construction.
• Required courses in the student’s major cannot be used for the minor.

Architecture majors cannot use CNS 2363 for the minor because it is required major work. CNS 1312 and CNS 2811 are required as a substitution.

Minors are available to all undergraduate students at OU. If the minor is officially declared and approved, successfully completed, and noted on the graduation application, the student’s transcript will so indicate at the time the bachelor’s degree is posted.
