English Minor
The English minor allows students to explore their interests in literature, film, and writing through a flexible, largely student-designed minor. The English minor allows students to develop a program of study around their individual interests and/or connections to their major area of study. This minor can be an engaging supplement to any major or can serve as an entirely different area of specialization, exploration, and inquiry.
The English minor is the department’s most flexible minor and allows students the opportunity to take courses in literature, film, and writing in a manner that best suits their needs and aspirations.
