The Minor in Global Premodern Studies (GPS) encourages understanding of the remote past by providing students the opportunity for interdisciplinary study of world events and cultures, before ca. 1500. 18 units must be taken from among the following courses, a minimum of nine units of which must be taken at the upper-division level (300-499).  Courses must be chosen from at least three different disciplinary areas, as determined by course prefix.  In the case of cross-listing, disciplinary area will be determined by the prefix selected by the student at registration.  Transfer students may petition the GPS advisor for minor credit for courses without articulation at CSUCI.  Special topics, UNIV, independent study, and capstone courses may be counted within the minor upon petition to the GPS advisor.
