A literature minor is the perfect choice for those with a love for reading who want to explore that passion as well as gain transferable skills and credentials that showcase their analytical, research and writing proficiency. This versatile minor showcases your ability to engage with the big questions in human society and enriches majors in history, psychology, theater, sociology, communications and many more.
Additional credit hours could indicate a major, second minor, or certificate. A minimum of 120 credit hours is required to graduate.
An undergraduate student should initiate a Change of Academic Program if they wish to add or remove a minor.
The student obtains a Change of Academic Program form from the Registrar's Office or the department of the new major/minor, secures the signature of the department chair/director (or dean) of any major/minor to be added, and returns the form to the Registrar's Office for processing.
A student must submit the completed form by the Thursday before priority registration if the change is to be made within the current semester. Unless granted a waiver by the department of the new major, the student must meet all current program requirements for graduation.
As a graduate of this program, you will understand the major socio-historical contexts informing the study of American/British literature, understand the distinctions between major literary genres, develop as an emerging professional with skills and habits of mind that will help you achieve success in further study in the discipline and the diverse profession you will pursue, and you will become a multi-dimensional reader, thinker, and writer. The literature minor complements any major including those related to the fields of advertising, business, communications, education, information science, media, public service, publishing, sales and writing. Graduating with this minor will also prepare you to pursue graduate study in English, education, political science, law, government, library and information science, public administration, psychology, counseling, communications, business and religious studies.
