The minor will familiarize the student with basic and advanced concepts of Naval Science with emphasis on naval history, technology, and leadership. This minor will support the students who plan to serve their country by recognizing their academic achievement outside of their major coursework. The minor will also give students who do not pursue military service a basic working knowledge of the United States Navy and Marine Corps. Concepts learned complement any chosen career path.

The Naval Sciences minor is offered in collaboration with the Navy ROTC (NROTC) program based at the Georgia Institute of Technology in Atlanta, Georgia. Students pursuing the minor take Naval Science coursework on the campus of Georgia Tech. Students register for courses through the cross-registration process, which is described at https://registrar.gsu.edu/registration/cross-registration/.

Admission to the Minor

Students interested in pursuing the Naval Science minor should discuss this option with their Georgia State University academic advisor. Transfer students and other students who have taken the majority of their undergraduate coursework at institutions other than Georgia State University should consult their academic advisor before cross-registering for courses to ensure that they will have a suitable number of Georgia State credits at the expected term of graduation.
