Minor fields are optional. Electives In most instances, the student's program has been planned to include electives. The provision of elective choice is based upon the premise that the student should have an opportunity to either further strengthen his major field or minor field or further broaden his background by selecting courses in areas of inadequacy or in– terest. Elective choice also provides the student with some flexi– bility should he decide to change major fields.
