The health behavior minor is designed for students who want to develop knowledge in health behavior-related topics and engage in courses which complement or enhance the myriad of degree programs available at Texas A&M University.   Some courses offered in the health behavior minor meet the International and Cultural Diversity or Cultural Discourse requirements for core curriculum graduation requirements.  

To declare the Health Behavior Minor, students must have a minimum GPA of 2.0, at least 12 graded hours at Texas A&M and fewer than 90 credit hours. Requirements must be met at the time of application. Applicants are reviewed by a committee following the posting of grades by the University and admitted on a competitive basis.
