Students from all disciplines choose English as a minor, but we particularly serve those who major in History, Psychology, or Biology. The minor focuses on the study of literature. It consists of 18 semester hours of English course work in addition to the University Core requirements in English, and must include English 2370, two 3000-level literature courses, two 4000-level literature courses, and one elective English course.

This
minor is for students who have a desire to develop their creative
writing skills (mainly in short fiction and poetry) through the
imaginative consideration of literature, both published American
literature and their own and their peers' writing. Students of all
majors are welcome. The minor consists of 18 semester hours and
includes four core courses. Prerequisite courses for the minor are
Composition I (Engl 1301), Composition II (Engl 1302), and a sophomore
literature course (Engl 2332, 2333, 2334, or 2335), passed with
a C or better. Any student may take individual courses in the minor
as long as he or she has met the prerequisites.

This minor is designed for students who have a desire to write as a preparation for careers in print journalism and for students who want experience in writing and editing for print, broadcast media, and composing online. Projects are done individually and collaboratively, looking at actual print and media settings. Consisting of 18 hours, the minor offers two blocks of courses that allow students to take the courses at any given semester. Contact: Dr. Diana Cardenas |
