School of Education – Minors Expand Opportunities with Liberty University’s Online Education Minors
Why Choose Liberty University’s School of Education for Your Minor?
Adding a minor is a great way to get additional expertise in a specialized subject for either personal interest or career growth. Your major will be the main focus of your degree, but this secondary area of study can expand your career options by adding to your educational background, often without lengthening your program.
Liberty’s minors still allow you to take 100% of your courses online. With a minor, you can gain an additional focus for your degree and stay connected with your family, church, and community while studying from the comfort of your home or office.

Expand Your Knowledge and Skills with a Minor from the School of Education
Your minor does not have to be related to your degree, but it does help to reduce the number of credits you need to graduate. Some minors pair well with any degree, like business or writing, while others are better suited for a specific area of study. Here are some suggested pairings for the minors offered from Liberty University’s School of Education
- Autism – Pairs well with our Bachelor of Science in Special Education Interdisciplinary Studies online degree program
- Education – Pairs well with any of our online bachelor degree programs
- Special Education – Pairs well with our Bachelor of Science in Elementary Education Interdisciplinary Studies online degree program
