Explore the field of education. If you’d like to develop an understanding of the educational process and tools, the education minor is a great way to combine your interest with your major course of study. You’ll learn about the education system and current perspectives in education. In this highly flexible program, you’ll choose electives in areas ranging from teaching methods to language and literacy to special education.

A Certification of Completion of Minor form needs to be completed at the beginning of a student’s final undergraduate semester at UNH. Forms are available from the Registrar’s Office.
