The Minor in English

The minor in English allows students majoring in other disciplines to construct a program of
study in English that will be appropriate to their individual interests and prospective careers.

The minor requires 18 credits, including ENG 303, Introduction to Literary Analysis, with a
grade of ā€œCā€ or better. Of the additional five elective courses (15 credits), at least two must be
at the 300 level or above, and only one may be at the 100 level.

Students may wish to construct their individualized English minor around concentrations in
such areas as American literature, British literature, film studies, women writers, cultural studies
in literature, writing, and modern literature. It is also acceptable to simply choose five electives
of interest.
