COGNATES

COGNATES Every student (except Foote Fellows) must complete 3 cognates, one in A&H, one in P&S, one in STEM. Every major and minor fulfills one cognate requirement See … https://umshare.miami.edu/web/wda/registrar/MajorMinorAreas.pdf Designed cognates are found using the search engine See … https://cognates.miami.edu Students may do more cognates, which get listed on their transcript.

COGNATE VARIANTS Courses that transfer in with specific UM course credit can be used for cognates. Students may ask the RAU to use non-specific transfer credits Students may ask the RAU to substitute courses in a cognate Only Transfer students with 30+ credits can do one “individualized cognate” (IC), which allows flexible use of transfer credits. Must be approved by the student’s college/school advising office.

COGNATE RULES A course may count for only one cognate. The three cognates must be from different RAUs No more than two cognates in the same college/school Except the College of Arts and Sciences
