Cognates

All undergraduate students at the University of Miami must complete three "Cognates" to graduate. Majoring or minoring in political science will fulfill your People and Society cognate requirement. You can also include our courses in an Individualized Cognate. If you are not a political science major or minor and are interested in taking some of our courses, we recommend some of the following People and Society cognates.
