The addictions minor expands access to courses in the MPS in addictions counseling and MPS in integrated behavioral health programs courses to the wider graduate student population, meeting a need for addictions-related coursework for students in related graduate and professional programs. Students in other disciplines may also find value in expanding their foundational knowledge of addictions for their own research and post-graduation career development. Finally, students in allied professional programs wishing to seek licensure can take this ADDS coursework in addition to specific host program coursework and internship requirements toward the Minnesota Licensed Alcohol and Drug Counselor (MNLADC) credential.
