Minors & Programs

 English Minor

English minors are advised out of the upper-division office. Dr. Elvira Casal advises all minors, but minors may consult any of the other advisors.

A minor in English requires a minimum of 15 upper division hours, including ENGL 3000. Minors must request permission of the department to enroll in English 3000 after declaring the minor. Typically, minors must wait to take English 3000 after completing at least one other upper-division English course. ENGL 1010, 1020, 2020, 2030 or other lower-division English classes cannot be counted as part of the hours required for the minor. Minors may not enroll in ENGL 3010, 3020, 3030, or 4500, which are open only to English majors.
