Minor in English

The English Department offers a 12-credit minor that provides students with an opportunity to pursue interests in literature, language, rhetoric, composition, and creative writing at the intermediate and advanced levels. The prerequisite to declare a minor is ENGL 22000 - Introduction to Writing about Literature (W) . Students minoring in English may choose four courses (12 cr.) from among 200- and 300-level literature, language, or writing offerings, with a minimum of two 300-level courses necessary to satisfy the Minor requirements. Students who wish to take Creative Writing workshops in any of the three genres offered (Fiction, Poetry, and Creative Non-Fiction) must first pass ENGL 30000 - Introduction to Creative Writing  , with a minimum grade of B. 

 NOTE: No course below English 22000 counts towards fulfillment of the Minor except ENGL 21800 - Advanced Expository Writing  . English minors may not take 400-level courses.
