A minor in addiction services is available through the Center for the Application of Substance Abuse Technologies (CASAT). All students are introduced
to the field of addiction services via the overview courses of HCS 1540 and HCS 2550. The treatment minor is especially suited to students majoring
in psychology, social work, criminal justice, and nursing. There is also an undergraduate treatment services certificate available for students who already
have a bachelor’s degree or do not wish to pursue a degree but seek addiction information for their chosen careers. Formal acceptance into a minor or
certificate program is required in order for students to take coursework at the 3000 or 4000 level. An additional application process is required for
acceptance into the internship, HCS 4916. Applications for the minor are due by April 1 for the fall semester and November 15 for the spring semester.
All applications are available through the CASAT office at 800 Haskell St. or online at http://casat.unr.edu/mwattc/unr.php.
