English: Literary & Cultural Studies, Minor

The requirements for a minor must be completed concurrently with the major degree requirements.

No minor may be added by completing courses after receiving the bachelor’s degree.

At least six (6) credit hours must be earned in courses acceptable for residence credit by standards set forth by the Dodge College of Arts and Sciences, excluding transfer, correspondence, and examination (AP, CLEP, Advanced Standing) credit. Courses for the minor may not be taken Pass/ No Pass.

No single course may be used by a student to satisfy a major requirement and a minor requirement. A course may be used, however, to satisfy both a major support requirement and a minor requirement. 

Requests to substitute a minor requirement must be approved in writing by the Department of English.

Required Courses

Students must successfully complete at least 15 hours of courses acceptable for major credit in English, including nine (9) hours at the upper-division level.

Students may not apply hours from first-year English (ENGL 1113, ENGL 1213) or from English courses designated as writing courses to a minor in literary and cultural studies.
