Print Degree Planner (opens a new window) |

A minor in English consists of fifteen hours in English courses beyond those used to fulfill Area A, C, F or other requirements. Courses required for the minor are either ENGL 2104 or ENGL 2105 , one course in African American literature, and three other ENGL courses not counted as a core course or elsewhere on the student’s grid. At least nine of the fifteen hours must be on the 3000- or 4000-level.

Area of Concentration in French or Spanish

The aims of the French and Spanish areas of concentration are (1) to develop the ability to communicate in a world language; (2) instill respect for other people and other cultures; (3) to develop an appreciation for the artistic expressions which are found in other languages, and (4) to bring about a greater awareness of our cultural heritage. The French or Spanish concentration consists of the second intermediate course (2002) in the language and twelve additional hours at the 3000 or 4000 level.

Students should begin language study at a level appropriate for their previous preparation. Students should take note of the language requirements in their majors since some majors do not permit credit for 1001 or 1002 except as open electives.
