Minor Code - U060

This minor is designed to introduce students to the relationships of soils to environmental protection and agricultural production.  It serves as a means to broaden and strengthen the backgrounds of students majoring in non-soils curricula within the Davis College as well as students majoring in biological, earth science, and environmental curricula in other WVU colleges. 

A grade of C or higher must be earned in all minor courses
