English Minor

The 18-credit English minor encourages students to take courses from each of the areas within the major: The Canon and Its Critics, Globality and Literature, and Cultural Studies, as well as courses in Creative Writing. By doing so, students will develop skills in writing and critical thinking  that will prove valuable in their later work experiences.

Supporting Courses and Related Areas (18 credits)
Select at least 12 credits from ENGL or ELISH 200-289 [Students may not count courses used to satisfy General Education Writing/Speaking Skills].

Select at least 6 credits from ENGL or ELISH 400-493.

A grade of C or better is required for all courses in the minor.

 

For questions or more information, please contact Dr. Sara Luttfring, Associate Professor of English, at [email protected] or 814-898-6072.
